Stray Dogs, the debut book by Richard John Parfitt, is about three high school dropouts who sell remainder dictionaries for a living until they become mixed up with a seemingly supernatural knife, The Devil''s Children motorcycle gang, murder, love, teen pregnancy, and a roadtrip to save their lives. In this hardboiled, noir style, coming of age story, John Turner, Millboy, and the girl "with the boy''s name" Frankie, discover themselves and each other on a journey that will haunt them forever.
Turner is a high school dropout newly arrived in Toronto. After taking a job selling dictionaries for a local grifter named Romeo Silva, the day goes wrong and Turner gets into a fight with a biker who ends up getting stabbed in the head. On the run from both Romeo and the Devils Children biker gang , Turner and his pals, Millboy and Frankie, find an abandoned summerhouse in which to hide out. But tensions within the group damage personal relationships as external threats converge to destroy the lives they had. In this hardboiled coming-of-age story that explores friendship, sex, drugs, and family: three teenagers on the edge of seventeen discover themselves and each other during a road trip of wild reversals on a journey that will haunt them forever.
