Freerunner
by David Trifunov
After stealing a pair of headphones and trying to run, climb and jump his way out of trouble, fourteen-year-old Patrick is surprised when the police officer is willing to get the charges dropped. But there's one condition — Patrick has to train with him in parkour, or freerunning.
Patrick must train extra hard to catch up to his new teammates and finds that he has a talent for parkour. When he develops a special friendship with a girl named Parker at the club, it creates tension with a teammate who is threatened by his success in the sport and his bond with Parker. Can Patrick and his rival put aside their differences when the parkour action intensifies?
