Set in a time after abortion is outlawed, Abandoned in the Maze tells the story of Irene Cobb, a seventeen-year old girl who is put into the custody of the state when her mother is arrested for aiding a shadowy pro-choice group. Irene and her younger sister enter the Trench Center, a corrupt state-run facility where children are the cogs in a system that pays more for medicated than non-medicated kids. Separated, each sister finds her own ways of coping with the neglect and abuse of the system. Upon her release, Irene returns home, hoping to reunite with her mother and sister, but soon she learns that she is the states client for life.
