Snobs, dogs and scobies

Snob: Ruan's life is golden. He lives in a beautiful home on a beautiful street and he's sure he'll breeze through the exams.

Everything is perfect. Dog: Emma lives just a few doors down from Ruan, but she knows she doesn't belong.

She tries to ignore the neighbours' whispers - how did she and her mother get a house on Ashfield Avenue? And why would Ruan talk to a dog like her? Scobie: In the council estate around the corner, Colm, tired of the problems in his family, decides to take matters into his own hands.

The Leaving Certificate exams are the only thing Ruan, Emma and Colm have in common ... or so they think, until an accident changes everything.
