Colt Jenson, 12, and his brother Bastian arrive in a working-class Australian neighborhood with their parents. Colt’s dentist father welcomes local children into their home, but Colt feels uneasy about the man’s physical friendliness and knows it has happened before. Nearby, Freya, the eldest of six, lives with a father whose drinking makes evenings tense and potentially dangerous. She confides in Mr. Jenson, while her brother Declan voices fears about his behavior.
