The narrative follows a circle of high-school friends as they organize and compete in ice hockey, staging tryouts, facing rival teams, and learning team play. Interwoven is a mystery about one boy's suspected link to a past robbery that strains loyalties and prompts investigation. A kindly older mentor reveals a personal tragedy that explains his devotion to youth, and incidents of sacrifice, discovery, and courage lead toward the accused boy's vindication and the team's maturation on and off the ice.
