When senior Elena Park's civics project meets Rory Maddox—a teen on probation sleeping in his car—Silverbrook's hidden homelessness becomes impossible to ignore. As city hall pushes bans and school gossip spreads his mugshot, Elena, her cop dad, and a small church choose the harder path: confession, repair, and real help. With Scripture threads (Luke 15; Psalm 139; Micah 6:8) and a restorative-justice arc, this YA Christian novel tackles stigma, addiction's ripple effects, and hope that sees the unseen—and stays to build something new.
