Thirteen-year-old Kevin lives in a middle-class suburban town with his mother and abuela. His father, a policeman, was killed recently in the line of duty. Kevin's a good kid. In the throes of soccer season, he's focused on helping his team qualify for the semi-finals and proving to his coach he has more than just star player potential. He's never been in trouble.
Until the night he's pulled over on the side of the highway with his best friend, Christy, driving her dad's car. When she begs him not to give anything up to the cops, Kevin keeps his mouth shut. It's not until the next morning-after he's spent the night in jail-that he finds out he's a felon, facing charges of Grand Larceny and kidnapping.
Sgt. Brown, a cop near retirement, agrees to participate in a new mentoring program for teens. A thirteen-year-old felon, though, is way more than he signed on for. But as soon as he meets Kevin, he can tell there's something Kevin and Christy are hiding.
What really happened that night?
If Kevin and Sgt. Brown can trust each other, they might be able to figure it out--and turn things around before it's too late.
