On the run from creditors after a failed sexual harassment suit against her powerful boss, Tanya ends up in the dingiest coffee shop in the Mission. Instead of a haven, she finds a lecherous boss, creepy patrons, and her destiny as a force of vengeance against "all who would make women shake, in fear of all the threats they make."
