Shady Hills presents itself as an upstanding group home for parentless youths. Sylvester Fisher is a sixteen-year-old resident of Shady Hills. He is also a mechanical genius who can't get beautiful Abby Swanson off his mind. Unfortunately, he has anger issues that label him a troublemaker. After too many fights, Shady Hills management locks him in a room where they believe he has no contact with any of the other residents.
However, through his ingenuity, Syl discovers Shady Hills harbors dark secrets that threaten not only his life but those of Abby and the other female residents. Can Syl overcome his bad-boy reputation, escape his room, escape Shady Hills altogether, take Abby and others with him, and expose the group home's evils?
