A woman caught breaking into a Century stone house won't tell anyone her name. Police can not charge her. The judge remands her to a psychiatric hospital for assessment. Here she meets forensic psychologist Dr. Elaine Price, who is trying to balance her career with a failing marriage and the needs of two small children. The resulting cat-and-mouse sessions take both women into the uncertain terrain of identity where living on the street is just one form of homelessness and laws do not always deliver justice. Dr. Price writes Homeless so that, if a crime she winds up committing is ever uncovered, her children might one day understand.
