Overview

"Is Eric as cold as the ice he skates on? A fiery tour de force from the author of Inexcusable, a National Book Award finalist. The other guys on Eric's hockey team call him the Iceman, because he's a heartless player, cold as ice. Only Eric knows the truth--he's not cold, he's on fire, burning with a need he just can't explain. Least of all to his family--not to his dad, whose only joy in life is watching Eric smash other hockey players to a pulp. Or his mom, who starts every conversation with, ""Your problem is..."" Or even his brother, Duane, once a star athlete, now a star slacker. Can Eric find a way to make them understand how he feels--before the fire inside consumes him completely?"
