Cormac is a latch-key kid living in The Bronx. He's tough, witty, and independent. Any kid would be lucky to have him at their side in a fight. If he's not in school, he's usually in his natural environment - the streets, and he's usually in trouble. Today he's supposed to be coming back from the pharmacy with his Graddad's refills, but has a chance encounter with a beautiful girl, and a lot to learn about the bigger world.
