BRONXVILLE

Bronxville, New York. Where Lee Stockdale finds shelter after a hurricane of tragedy blows his family out of Miami. As the new kid in town, he tries to fit in under the roof of a stepfather who regrets he came with the package. The secret of his father's suicide, wrapped around the universal pain of being thirteen, assures that life pretty much sucks, and Stockdale rides through Bronxville on a Depression Bus until he grasps that he lives a train ride away from The Greatest City in the World. Bronxville-he claims it as home, whether or not it claims him.
