Strung Out: A Novella

by Robin Ray

In one day everything can change. A modern coming-of-age fable, Strung Out tells the tragic story of five homeless youth who struggle with addiction and other maladies in the big city. The backdrop, in this case, is Seattle, but it can be Anywhere, USA, as the menace of drug abuse continues to sweep across the nation. Even with the aid of social service organizations and their caring workers, it can sometimes be impossible to get through to the youth who have fallen by the wayside. Strung Out is a cautionary tale, one that can plague any well-meaning family, and a testimony to the ails that continue to torment today's society.
