In the dark and cold basement of northern Minnesota, 9-year-old Becky finds herself trapped by her mean and drunk father, Henry. Desperate and cold, she discovers an old Santa coat to warm her naked body. Lonely and scared, Becky befriends the mice that inhabit the basement, naming them and creating a little town with them as residents. As days pass, hunger gnaws at her, leading her to a dark and heartbreaking decision - she begins to eat the mice that were once her friends, all the while crying in despair. The tone of the story is dark and haunting, capturing the stark reality of Becky's situation. The theme of survival and loneliness is prevalent throughout, highlighting the resilience of a young girl in the face of unimaginable circumstances.
