About the book
Teenage novel. Maybe lives with a tribe of homeless teens – runaways and throwaways, kids who have no place to go other than the cold city streets, and no family except for one another. Abused, abandoned, and forgotten, they struggle against the cold, hunger, and constant danger. Maybe tries to help a newcomer called Tears.
