"It’s a funny thing when life works that way…holding you hostage to history while demanding you evolve and remake yourself in order to survive."
Jamie uncovers life-changing secrets from his past when he's sent to live with a father he's never met in this gritty novel from the author of Exit Here and Run the Game.
Jamie is invincible when he is high. His anger, his isolation, his mom's manic mood swings--nothing can shatter his glass castle. But one brutal night upends everything, leaving his mom broken and Jamie betrayed.
Sent to live with a father he's never met, Jamie is determined to hate the man he blames for his mother's ruin. And he blocks out the pain with drugs, fierce music, and sweet, sweet Dominique. Except the more time Jamie spends at his dad's, the more his mother's scathing stories start to unravel. Who is he supposed to believe? And how much will he have to sacrifice to uncover the truth?

Marshall says:
"I loved it! For a young adult book, I was sometimes amazed at the subject matter, but it is a great read nonetheless. Makes me think this could mirror the rapper Eminem's early teen years!"
