Summary
"Trace's relationship with his older brother Will becomes increasingly complicated after Will suffers a traumatic brain injury and becomes addicted to pain pills"--, Provided by publisherTrace Reynolds has always looked up to his brother, mostly because Will, who is five years older, has never looked down on him. When Will was knocked out cold during a football game, resulting in a brain injury, everything changed. Sixteen months later their family is still living under the weight of the incident that left Will with a facial tic, depression, and an anger he cannot always control, culminating in their parents' divorce. And Will is struggling with addiction to pain medication. As Will becomes more and more withdrawn, and escalates to stealing money and ditching school, Trace realizes some secrets cannot be kept if we ever hope to heal
