A 13-year-old named Charlie Wilson finds himself confined in a real cell at Riverton Boys' Home, a place filled with bars, a solid steel door, and surveillance. As a state ward from Two Lakes, Charlie navigates his experience, encountering written names and symbolic words like "kehua" or ghost on the walls. The story explores his time in captivity and the environment that surrounds him, hinting at deeper themes without revealing too much.
