Book Description

Worthless. Unloved. Pathetic. Don't ask for his name. He doesn't have one. For countless years, "the boy" has been shackled in the basement of his cruel father's household, where he knows that his dream of escaping to the Outside world will remain only that. A dream. That is until a stranger notices him, and helps him in a daring escape. Suddenly, the boy finds himself in the care of Hazel Macklin. He doesn't quite understand how to act around her fierce brother Tyler, or her kindly Aunt Paige, or her Uncle Will - a short-tempered man who has been depressed ever since the accidental drowning of his son. Through his heart-wrenching struggle to understand the world, the boy discovers what it's really like to be human. With the nagging suspicions and hazy memories tugging at his head, readers are left wondering until the very end. Who is the boy without a name?
