Read Stones Storyline:

Coo is trying to cope with the hand that life has dealt her. At sixteen, she feels she's too young to have lost her older brother, Sam, to alcoholism. She's skipping school to avoid the sympathy and questions of her friends and teachers, and shunning her parents, angry that they failed to protect her, and desperate to avoid having to face the fact that, towards the end, she began to wish Sam would leave forever -- even die. Then, one day, truanting by the Brighton seafront, Coo meets Banks, a homeless alcoholic and she's surprised to discover that it is possible for her life to get more complicated. Despite warnings from her friends and family, Coo and Banks develop an unlikely friendship. Brought together through a series of unexpected events, strange midnight feasts, a near drowning and the unravelling of secrets, together they seek their chance for redemption. That is, until Coo's feelings start getting dangerously out of hand.
