Ana Elwes is a junior in high school who's in over her head. With two AP classes (and subsequently two F's), a vendetta against fashion, and a brother with a 4.5 gpa, she begins to consider the unthinkable.
Cameron Grant is a high school dropout who makes his living delivering packages for moonlit shadows and whispers on the phone. When he gets busted for a screwed up delivery, he winds up hiding out in the attic of an abandoned house, questioning what his life is worth.
When two teens bent to the breaking point meet in the attic of a rundown house, they find out how little life really matters to them; and how much it matters to save someone who has lost their way.
