Under siege from cannibalizing hoards, the town must decide whether to keep him and share their slender resources or let him brave the winter alone. Whether he survives the winter will depend on the kindness of strangers. However much he needs them though, it soon becomes apparent that the boy has a hidden talent that can save them all.
