Seventeen-year-old Bendy McRaven knows better than to hope. After eight foster homes in one year, he's learned that nothing lasts-especially not families. Wearing a mask to hide more than just his physical scars, Bendy keeps his head down, his secrets buried, and his heart firmly out of reach. But his newest placement is different. The Bakers are kind. Too kind. And their home is already full of kids who know what it means to be labeled different. When Bendy slowly begins to build trust with the Bakers and catches the attention of Agatha at school, an artist who looks past his mask, the walls he's built begin to crack. There's just one problem. Bendy has an ability. And the closer he gets to people, the harder it becomes to keep his power-and his past-hidden. Because once the truth comes out, it always costs him everything. Behind the Mask is a haunting, heartfelt coming-of-age novel about found family, identity, and the terrifying hope that maybe-just maybe-this time, he won't be sent away. And his past won't find him.
