Сэму всего пятнадцать, но ему приходится решать взрослые проблемы: что есть, где жить и как защитить брата, который нуждается в особом внимании. И он находит выход из положения. Сэм вламывается в пустующие дома, живёт там, пока может, опустошает холодильники и ищет чем поживиться. И так снова и снова до тех пор, пока он не попадает в суматошный дом Дилейни — семьи, состоящей из отца-одиночки и его семерых детей. И в этом хаосе у Сэма появляется возможность обрести пристанище, а с ним — друзей и первую любовь. Главное — не дать прошлому помешать начать жизнь с чистого листа.

Beck hates his life. He hates his violent mother. He hates his home. Most of all, he hates the piano that his mother forces him to play hour after hour, day after day. He will never play as she did before illness ended her career and left her bitter and broken.

When Beck meets August, a girl full of life, energy and laughter, love begins to awaken within him and he glimpses a way to escape his painful existence. But dare he reach for it?
