Young Adult Fiction

Raphael is a dumpsite boy. He spends his days wading through mountains of steaming trash, sifting it, sorting it, breathing it, sleeping next to it.

People say to him, “Oh my, but you just never know what you might find. Today could be your lucky day.”

But Raphael knows exactly what he’ll find. And he knows what his friends will find. And he knows what they’ve been finding for all the years they’ve been working as dumpsite boys. Trash.

Then one unlucky-lucky day, Raphael’s world turns upside down. A small leather bag falls into his hands. It’s a bag of clues. It’s a bag of hope. It’s a bag that will change everything.
