   Summary

   One summer, 10-year-old Bonnie Bennett follows her grandmother to Portland to visit some family friends. There, she meets Malachai Parker, a closed-off child that appears to want nothing to do with her. Until he does.

   Soon enough, an unsuspected bond develops between the pair and their lives start to intertwine in ways they would have never expected.
