Alpha Bravo Charlie Dawg Cyan Brodie

By her own admission, 14-year-old Callie Sinclair is already suffering a mid-life crisis. As cynical and sneering as only an adolescent girl can be, the last thing Callie needs right now is someone to come along and thaw her icy exterior. But the arrival in the neighbourhood of a mysterious young boy, Charlie Kerr, who refuses to speak to anyone except Callie, changes everything. She takes him under her wing and finds herself warming to the poor kid. Week by week, Callie's determination to help Charlie recover from his troubled past seems to be working. However, Callie's efforts slowly undermine her carefully created image as 'the coefficient of cool'. And the boy's increasingly impulsive behaviour eventually places the lives of Callie and her little sister in grave danger. That's when Callie Sinclair reverts to norm, breaking all contact with Charlie and hiding behind her own defences once more. It takes a cruel twist of fate for her to re-evaluate everything about herself. Is Charlie Kerr a devil boy like everyone else believes, or will he turn out to be her saviour?
