What sucks about waking up next to a dead girl on a Saturday is more than likely you're going to miss brunch.

Just ask Sammy Junior—full-time house painter, part-time street artist, and, as of Saturday morning, prime suspect in a South Tampa homicide investigation. One more hassle he simply does not need.

Then there's Penny Sullivan, a 15-year-old runaway who shows up in South Tampa that same Saturday morning with only her dead sister's street smarts, a whole lot of survivor's guilt, and a Canada backpack.

Misunderstandings lead to Penny joining Sammy's crew, giving her a glimpse of the house-painting business—where mind-numbing boredom inspires an acid-trip world of distraction, art, and healing relationships.

A funny, fast-paced story about friendship and love, tragedy and redemption, and the always intriguing business of house painting.
