All fourteen-year-old Robbie Hendrick ever wanted was a family. But as another Mississippi summer begins, his troubled mother has run off again, and he’s left to burn the days caring for his half brother, Fess. As days and nights pass without her return, and social services begin looming over them, Robbie fears losing Fess, the only family he’s ever really had.
