Skittery is 12 and his life has turned to shit. He has no friends, his mother is drunk off her ass, and he generally hates everything.
Then he met him.
Russell is a subversive and careless 16 year old. He's reckless and enjoys breaking rules with some of his "friends". But then, gets caught and thrown into a "boot camp". When he gets the wrong people mad, he eventually ends up alone in the woods. It's crazy what a week alone in the woods can do to you...
