Description
There are few people in our lives who have as much influence on us as our
mother and father, brothers and sisters. Family ties are the earliest ties that
bind, setting the tone for the paths we will take in our future. So what if your
father is Dirk Hopeless and your mother Nikki Savage, a superstar couple from
the days of punk rock? When you're born a rebel, what can you possibly do to
make yourself stand apart? For Rat Hopeless-Savage, the answer is to leave home
and start a new life somewhere, become a normal citizen with a nine-to-five job.
It's going pretty well, too, until Dirk and Nikki are kidnapped, and suddenly
the family Rat tried so hard to deny needs him more than ever. His siblings
- sisters Arsenal and Zero, and brother Twitch - know the Rat of old
is the only one who can find their parents, and they're determined to make him
trade his white-washed existence for the leather jacket and spiked hair of his
youth. What follows is a madcap race against the clock, and a hilarious look at
what happens when alternative lifestyles become the norm.
