Meet Leo Valdez, best mechanic in the country by age 16. He's even won the awards to prove it. He also happens to be a secret, bona-fide sculptor, spending long winter nights carving. He laughs and jokes like nothing's wrong. But his talent comes at a price, it's damn lonely being by himself in the little shop he keeps. What happens when a mysterious woman asks him to carve her a statue named Nico di Angelo? And it comes alive?
