Living in a small town can be hard when gossip spreads like wildfire and the judgement of others seems to be a profession in which everyone has a doctorate, but it's even harder when your father is gone, your mother is mentally checked out, and your only best friend doesn't even know you.
Sam's whole life in Caster, Minnesota has made her jaded. She's convinced there are no real people left in the world to make her feel again and heal some of the brokenness created by her circumstances, but when a new kid comes to town bringing with him rumors of jail time and death, she can't help but be curious. She knows he can't be her cure, but maybe in him she can be understood.
What she never saw coming, was to fall for a boy with starless eyes.
"Have you ever looked into someone's eyes and seen all their demons? Seen everything that's ever haunted their dreams? It's a terrible, mesmerizing, conundrum, and I just couldn't stay away.... "
