I’m looking for a specific kind of plot/character relationship that I haven’t read in a while. The general idea is that the main character meets someone with some kind of mystery or secret, and they’re a fugitive or somehow hiding in some way and needs help from the protagonist. Books like *Among the Hidden* by Haddix or *Legend* by Marie Lu, or like season one of *Stranger Things* with El running/hiding and Will keeping her in his basement. Or like the kid from *Jo Jo Rabbit* who finds the Jewish girl in the attic.
I feel like I used to read a lot of these kinds of books as a teen, but haven’t found any recently.
