Talon - an albino with snowy white hair, pale skin and pink eyes - can’t be more out of place in a small village of fourteen hundred people, religious people mostly. For them, Talon, with his rare condition, is the devil’s spawn, spreading evil everywhere he goes. The townsfolk ostracize him, demonize him, and take every opportunity to abuse him verbally and physically. Talon’s parents are no exception and are one of the first to lay their hands on him. With no help from anyone, the pure and innocent Talon gets by to the best of his ability.
Things start to change when a raven-haired boy comes into his life. People start helping him in one way or another, and he makes friends for the first time in his life. Talon comes to realize not everyone in Milan, Ohio, is rotten to the core.
But would his friends be enough to save him from the ones who want to hurt him? Will it be enough to shade him from the dark secrets this new boy has brought into town with him? Read Cheyenne Lawson’s first book in her series Helpless, which will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you wanting more.
