Lyle Kent is an average fifteen-year-old who is just starting high school when his whole life is turned upside down in a single day.

One kind act spins the gossip and bullies of a small town into a frenzy and Lyle feels he must act. Lyle is always looking for a sign, hoping he will find something magic, but he finds that he has to look within himself for strength.
