Mall Child - Paperback

by Greg Dunn (Author)

It's Christmas Eve and a child is born. Not blessed in a manger, but abandoned in a shopping mall.

He's mixed-race, unwanted and tossed aside. His future looks bleak, yet hope comes in the most unlikeliest of shapes.

Veteran mall cop, Callahan and his extended family decide they will look after the upbringing of Sammy the Mall Child. As the years progress the child is surrounded by love, laughter, and antics which buffer him from an increasingly violent, polarized world.

Yet the child wrestles with the tensions of nurture versus nature and the ancient dilemma of good versus evil. Meanwhile, the members of his extended family struggle with their own demons as they try to adapt to an increasingly challenging environment.

For in this mixed-up dystopian world it needs all of them to pull together to survive, or none of them will. The question is, can a simple mall cop keep them safe, or will it all fall apart, like a jam-filled donut splitting at the seams.
