THE MUSKRAT BOY OF GRIFFITH PARK is the story of a lonely young woman with a traumatized past who discovers an unconventional way of healing herself. You think you're lonely? Meet Elsa. She lives alone on the corner of Pineapple and Perishing with a view of the highway and two palm trees. She has no friends, no family, and certainly no lovers, and she can't remember the last time she was physically touched by a human, or any other living creature for that matter. Her life dangles precariously over an abyss and if something doesn't happen soon, she'll fall in and never be heard from again. Then one day she meets Lucas, the strange and scruffy boy from Griffith Park. From that moment forward her life will never be the same.
