The Box in the Corner

Life on the streets has never been easy for seventeen-year-old Charlie. But when she meets a boy with split personalities, it gets even harder.

The way Ben sees the world through eyes of kindness and grace draws Charlie in. But his bursts in and out of mania become too much for her to handle. Each time he chases her through the city with a knife, she wonders how much longer she'll be able to stay.

Desperate to escape Ben's insanity, Charlie hunts down a psychotherapist who claims to have a cure. If Ben's mental chains can be broken, Charlie might finally be able to tell him she loves him. Their lives could turn around. But if Ben can't shake his past, Charlie might end up with a slit throat instead of a happily ever after.
