The Night Kids

By Kevin E Koppers

The Night Kids: Set on the cold, unforgiving streets of Hollywood; a raw, intimate coming-of-age novel about survival, loyalty, and what it costs to grow up too fast.

At twelve years old, Julian Wells is escaping an abusive home. When he and his sister run to Hollywood to find their Father, it feels like their last chance at something better.
It isn't.

When his sister disappears, Julian is left alone-lost in a city of neon lights, dark alleys, and people who don't ask questions.
Survival means learning fast.

With Brian, a runaway who becomes his closest ally, and Sharon, a fearless girl with a dangerous edge, Julian is pulled into a world where nothing is guaranteed-not safety, not love, not even tomorrow.
For a while, it almost feels like life.

But the deeper he's pulled into the streets, the more it takes from him.
And when the past finally catches up, Julian is compelled to face the truth he's been running from:
Some things don't wait for you to grow up.
They are forced on you.
