A Story of Suffering, Struggle, Redemption and Survival The outcry of screams radiates through the house. The walls vibrate with the sounds of a crashing body. This familiar scene causes fourteen-year-old Shane to shiver, and his heart to pound. Shane and his sixteen-year-old sister Shauna have dealt with the abuse of their stepfather, John, for as long as they can remember. They grow weary of the beatings but have no place to run until a doleful twist of fate changes their lives. One cold winter night John decides his stepchildren can no longer live in his house. Hes grown tired of feeding another mans kids. Homeless, Shane takes aggressive steps to survive. Shauna learns that Shane has contacts she knew nothing about. The most powerful is, Basim, a drug king pin. Basim takes Shane under his wing and teaches him every area of the business. Shane throws himself into his work. Hes known on the streets as Youngblood, a crazy young cat filled with rage. He grows more ruthless as time passes, that is, until he meets his Conscience. Told in the poignant voice of Shane, we watch as he grapples with the physical and emotional aches of learning to trust and accept love in the midst of constant heartache and pain.
