Trash by Andy Mulligan

Three boys who survive by scavenging at a city dump find a mysterious bag that draws them into a dangerous web of secrets, corruption and violence; pursued by hostile police and criminals, they must use courage, loyalty and wit to uncover what the objects mean and to protect one another. As they navigate the city's legal and moral injustices, they form unlikely alliances, face heartbreaking choices, and discover resilience and hope amid poverty and exploitation.
