Unable to speak after surviving the terrible incident that took his parents, school becomes a nightmare, until Michael discovers he has a special talent that makes people sit up and take notice: he can open locks.

But a teenage prank burglarising the house of a rival school's quarterback lands him in hot water and despite his best intentions, Michael soon finds himself on a downward slope that ends with expert instruction on how to open safes. And unless he agrees to put his newfound skills to use, the mob are going to kill the father of the girl he now loves.
