Just released from prison after a liaison with an underage girl, the Kid has no one to help him and nowhere to go. Shackled to a GPS monitoring device and forbidden to live within 2,500 metres of anywhere children may gather, he washes up under a Florida causeway, in a shanty town built by his fellow outcasts. And then, one day, the Professor arrives. Physically and intellectually imposing, he apparently finds in the Kid the perfect subject for his research on criminality.
But both the Kid and the Professor are deeper and more complex than they seem, and when the Professor's past resurfaces with destructive consequences, the Kid finds himself facing a new kind of moral decision.
