Books
An army veteran with a career as a beat cop behind her, security guard Addie Finch is tough - on the outside. Internally, she's in crisis mode. She's lonely, introverted, struggling through AA, estranged from her son, and, at sixty-two years old, questioning her role as a protector. She also has a soft spot for the underdog that's about to change her life. Addie finds Jonathan, a homeless teenager abandoned by his mother, holed up in a warehouse and vulnerable to the elements and to predators. Touched by the boy's gentle nature and a wisdom beyond his years, Addie offers him temporary shelter in her garden shed in exchange for maintaining the sprawling property. It's an act of kindness and purpose that means the world to Jonathan.
