Teenage romance is confusing even in the best of times - but it's even worse when you've also accidentally kidnapped your girlfriend's little sister. John Brandon follows his acclaimed Arkansas with this dark, yearning story of Citrus County - manatees and strip malls, pep rallies and crazy uncles, secret bunkers and whip-smart girls. All the swampy humidity of central Florida, all the blind hunger of first love, and all the endless futility of eighth grade.
