A suburban golden boy, an inner-city girl forced to grow up too soon, and a street kid doing whatever it takes to survive cross paths in New York City. As their fates intertwine, they find themselves wrapped up in the underworld workings of a powerful crime boss. In a struggle to find salvation and meaning in dark times, they search for forgiveness and understanding in places where there seem to be none. When one family is torn apart, another is brought together as Children of the Streets, Part 1: The Runaways and Part 2: The Aftermath are presented together in one volume: Scott’s Story.
