The Trimble brothers have terrorized Riley Mason since fifth grade. High school hasn't changed anything. He makes a deal with them but then takes an angry risk that backfires. When they ambush Riley and his dog there's no escape, and Lulu may not survive the vicious beating. Riley needs help to save her but alien abduction isn't the rescue he had in mind. Now Riley and Lulu are on a journey through space and time. They're desperate to get home and their would-be rescuers are just as eager to be rid of them. But on a ship full of exotic creatures, Riley is the alien and one thing is soon made clear - bullies come in all shapes and species.
