Best to be alone. Alone you can balance. You can concentrate. One foot after the other like a tightrope walker. You have to concentrate. You want no one hanging on your arm or your heart because then your balance is lost. And that is how Lamb survives. Since walking out on her life at sixteen, Lamb has lived alone in the gaps between other people's lives. She cleans for a living and secretly inhabits the cellar of an elderly client. By keeping herself completely to herself she maintains a precarious balance--"until she meets Doggo, a young criminal on the run. Doggo and Lamb, both strangers to the concept of truth, are drawn together, glimpsing in one another the possibilities of finding love, solace and a new equilibrium. If only they could learn to trust.
