Midnight Cab jellemzők

A three-year-old boy is abandoned at the side of a country road. His mother whispers to him to hold on to a wire fence. She never returns, but the boy is eventually found - holding-on so tightly the wire is cutting into his hands. Well-dressed, but without identification, the only clue to his background is a photograph of two young girls and a chatty letter from a teenager found in his pocket. Sixteen years later, Walker Devereux moves to Toronto to discover the truth about his early life. Who are his parents? Why was he abandoned?
