Thirteen-year-old Duncan resents it when his parents force him to help his elderly neighbor, Astrid Valentine. She's crabby and demanding, and when her nephew Eddie visits, she becomes paranoid, too. Sure that Eddie is stealing from her, Astrid browbeats Duncan into hiding some of her possessions, which makes him even more bitter. Though Duncan would never harm Astrid, the police suspect otherwise when someone sets a fire on her property.
