YA
Teenage thief Luke is given community service as punishment for his latest crime. The family he victimized wants him to be a "guide runner" for their blind daughter in the London Marathon. The scenes in which the two well-developed characters learn to run together are especially strong in a novel that will appeal even to non-sports fans.
