Everyone in Godfrey knows about the city's problem with street kids, but hockey prodigy and high school student Elliot Wexler never thought he'd see one in the flesh. Well, at least not in his dad's shed.

A thief, scavenger and certified street rat, Lucy Pembroke's world couldn't be more different from Elliot's. Despite that, he sees something in her that he's never seen in anyone else. Maybe it's not love, but it's something, and to Elliot, that's worth exploring.

The closer Elliot gets to Lucy, the further she falls from her old life, but when shadows come knocking at their door, Elliot learns the truth -- that Lucy was never on the streets so she could be wild or free. Lucy's running from a dangerous past, one that might put Elliot and his family in the crossfire.
