The Orphan Network

Danny's life takes a drastic turn when after running away from his broken home he stumbles into a secretive network dedicated to aiding those betrayed by society. As he becomes entangled in their hidden world, he discovers a group bound not just by their mission but also by their harrowing pasts. When Oskar, a key member of this network, vanishes, Danny and Ellis—the de facto leader of the group—develop feelings for each other as they are thrust into a perilous search. Their quest to find Oskar exposes deep-seated traumas and hidden truths about themselves. As they navigate the dangerous terrain of betrayal and threat, they confront a nefarious local gang known as The Remnants, who are not only endangering their hidden community but also holding an innocent girl named Esme captive. With trust wavering and tensions mounting, Danny and Ellis must confront their own demons and determine how far they are willing to go to save their friends and protect their found family. The inclusion of housemate Ashley's retired police officer uncle Doug raises the stakes tremendously. Will they be able to save Esme without exposing their entire at-risk community to outside scrutiny? In "The Orphan Network", suspense and emotional depth converge in a gripping tale of newfound fragile love, gritty survival, and essential trust.
