As
a fourteen-year-old who just moved to a new town, with no friends and a host of
family challenges, Doug Swieteck has everything stacked against him. He finds unlikely allies in a neighbourhood
girl and in the town librarian who help him find the strength to endure an
abusive father, the suspicions of a whole town, and the return of his oldest
brother from Vietnam. Grade 6.
