Overview

Growing up in a dead-end South Texas town, Mickey had two things she could count on: her big brother, Danny--the football hero everyone loved--and a beat-up copy of The Outsiders. But after the accident--after Danny abandoned her to a town full of rumors and a drunken father--all Mickey had left was a smoky memory, her anger, and the resolution to get out of town for good. But Danny is back--and he's not the golden boy who left six years ago. He's altogether a different person, and the life Mickey has worked so hard to rebuild seems to be falling apart. Danny's anger is something Mickey just can't forgive, and his best friend's mysterious death six years ago keeps coming back to haunt the edges of her mind. No matter how hard she tries, she can't remember what happened that night--and she's starting to realize that remembering is the only way she can move on. She'll have to face the brother who broke her heart, and that beat-up book that will never again feel like home. From the Hardcover edition.
