Lily knows what she wants.
She wants to know the meaning of the postcards her absent father sends her - cryptic words and images that reveal nothing of his life or feelings. Once she makes up her fourteen-year-old mind, she doesn't hesitate to leave her grandmother and travel cross-country to intrude on Herman, the reclusive great-uncle she barely knows, who might hold some clues.
Isn't that what family is for?
In Winners and Losers, a teenage runaway and a gruff old man come to realize, each in their way, that knowledge need not mean having all the answers, while they attempt to fathom the connection between obligation and love.
