설명
Touch is a comedy-suspense Middle-Grade (or early YA) novel about friendship, love, and acceptance.
From his entrance into the world, Touch is an oddity at best, and a freak at worst. Stricken with a strange disability that only allows him the use of two of his five senses at a time (one of which must always be touch), his life is harder than most, but he makes the best of it, even after his loved ones die one by one, each under mysterious circumstances.
When all is seemingly lost, Touch meets Early Jay, a fat, stuttering boy with a big heart, who becomes Touch’s best friend and confidante. Together, they embark on a quest to find Touch’s biological father, who they believe is linked to the deaths of Touch’s family members. Along the way, Touch is adopted by an ex-mobster named Eddie “The Hammer” Norton, who adds Touch to his sixteen-child foster family. The Norton kids, as they refer to themselves, welcome Touch and Early into the fold and soon become mixed up in the growing conspiracy that haunts Touch’s life.
