Publisher's Synopsis
'A beautifully written, acutely observed coming-of-age story with one profound difference. This is a novel for grown-ups. Read it' - Michael Nava Guy Griffith, gay, 40, and less than satisfied with the state of his life, comes to San Francisco looking for a new life. There he meets sixteen-year-old Doug Whitmore and surrenders with pleasure to the boy's adolescent energy. But life is never so simple when confused youth meets bedazzled middle age and the treachery of human need leads to consequences both bitter and sweet.
