Rudy Holland has a gift, or a talent as his friend Ty proclaims. His well said 'talent is meeting people in the alleyways between stores and restaurants. More specifically girls. In the most innocent way, for sixteen year old Rudy Holland is quite shy. On a plane trip to visit his Republican father and hippie step mother, he meets Cardinal Wilson. Cardinal is the sole survivor of her parents divorce, and has a bad case of survivor's guilt. Cardinal, struggling on the inside, but smiling on the outside, is crying for help. Rudy decides on a desperate measure, with his 'foster parents' permission of course, to make an incredibly bold move. But Rudy's grandmother, Esther, with child-like actions and impulsive issues, as well as flashbacks and anxiety, manages to put things out of order.
