Synopsis
Second Hand Kid
Published by Dramatic Publishing
3 Male 4 Female
Instead of the the 10-year-old "Shirley Temple" she was promised, Connie's charge is 16-year-old Lisa, a repeat offender who has a history of addiction and abuse
Connie's 27-year-old daughter, Angela, takes an instant dislike to Lisa ... and for good reason
Not only does the teenager upset a monotonously secure routine, she also brings new problems
Her vicious brother, Ed, shows up to "keep an eye on Lisa"
What's worse, Angela catches Lisa stealing Connie's meager savings
Only Papa, Connie's father-in-law, is able to touch Lisa across the generations
Eventually each character must make a decision - and none of their lives will ever be the same
