Fifteen-year-old Soli, a rebellious but well-meaning foster child, is finally placed with a family with whom he feels at home. Martha, the foster mother of three, has a good heart and is the first person to truly believe in Soli's potential. The story is simultaneously funny, disturbing, and inspiring, and will give hope to teens who feel alone or misunderstood.
