-dropped off and picked up too many times to count!
When Nigel ends up with his 99-year-old step grandfather, Steve, he's sure this drop off is going to be like every other time. Instead, he's regaled with tales of pirates, stolen money, and off-shore bank accounts.
And what about the cat his grandfather refers to?
Nigel isn't sure whether any of his grandfather's stories are true, but with him he finds a place he can be himself and belong. Nigel learns how a man can be respected and Steve remembers the joy of childhood innocence. Together they discover age doesn't really matter when you find common ground.
