Trash

• Title: Trash by Andy Mulligan

In a world where children are often left to fend for themselves, Raphael is one such child. He lives on a dumpsite, spending his days sifting through mountains of steaming trash in the hopes of finding something valuable. One day, he makes an extraordinary and deadly discovery that will change his life forever.

Raphael's world turns upside down when he finds a small leather bag filled with clues. It's a bag of hope that has the power to change everything for him and his friends Gardo and Rat. But soon they find themselves running for their lives, as they are wanted by the police for reasons they don't fully understand.

As the net tightens around them, Raphael, Gardo, and Rat uncover a dead man's mission to put right a terrible wrong. Now it's up to these three street boys to outsmart the corrupt forces that run the city and bring justice to those who need it most.

Trash is a gripping and heart-wrenching story about friendship, loyalty, and the power of hope in even the bleakest circumstances. It is a must-read for anyone who loves a good adventure story with a touch of social commentary.
