He has glimpsed his neighborsbeautiful manicurist Rayleen, lonely old Ms. Hinman, bigoted and angry Mr. Lafferty, kind-hearted Felipe, and 9-year-old Grace and her former addict mother Eileen.
But most of them have never seen Billy. Not until Grace begins to sit outside on the buildings front stoop for hours every day, inches from Billys patio. Troubled by this change in the natural order, Billy makes it far enough out onto his porch to ask Grace why she doesnt sit inside where its safe. Her answer: If I sit inside, then nobody will know Im in trouble. And then nobody will help me.
Her answer changes everything.
