Fan Casting Mara Ellison in Fall Line

Operations Manager Mara grew up in a working-class household where achievement was considered the only path to security. The first person in her family to earn a graduate degree, she climbed the corporate ladder through discipline, intelligence, and relentless effort. By thirty-two, she's become one of the company's youngest operations managers. On paper, she's a success story. In reality, she's trapped in a marriage that has become more transactional than emotional, and she increasingly feels that her entire identity revolves around solving other people's problems.
