Brandon lives with his mother, who drinks and does drugs, and her abusive boyfriend. They decide to move to Canada and leave him with his grandparents, where he sees what a normal, loving home is like, until his mother shows back up trying to get him back. His grandparents fight to keep him and he is torn between both.

A really good read.
