An interconnected web of lives in one midwestern city captures the
surprising humanity of people searching for their authentic selves
amid the 1990s drug crisis. Amy Taylor finds the inner-city streets
around her high school vibrant and animated compared to the bland
middle-class neighborhood where she lives with her career-driven
mother. In these streets, she meets the people of the city, among
them a wayward boy named Jonathan, a struggling drug dealer, and
Paul Lewis, a documentary photographer who becomes Amy's mentor.
Under his inspiration, she attempts to capture their world through
the lens of her camera. From the multiple perspectives of Amy and
the expansive group of people she meets, award-winning novelist
Michael Henson presents a heartbreaking portrait of the effects the
Reagan-initiated drug war had on the young.
