Vernon Dawson hasn't had the best childhood. Physical, mental and alcohol/drug abuse run in the family. When he enters Ontonagon High, he falls in with a rough crowd, for reasons of fitting in. His life falls off the rails when he falls in love with Isabel and he later finds himself at Manitou Boys Home, a reformatory for boys on a remote island off the UP of Michigan. Will their relationship survive? This suspenseful thriller will keep you on the edge of your seat as Vernon mingles with the other degenerates of Manitou Boys Home.
