Publisher's Synopsis
Privileged, precocious, and not yet 16, Skip Macalester has a lot to learn about life, love, and just where he fits in an extended, upper-class African-American family that's full of success, secrets - and surprises. JE Robinson's first novel is a unique coming-of-age story that follows Skip through his junior year at Milton High as he uncovers hidden truths about himself, his family, and even his teachers. With his best friend, protector, and would-be lover Drew at his side, Skip loses his innocence to the harsh realities of interracial romance, class and clergy abuse.
