keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say. . . "

ABERDEEN, 1986. In a bygone era where MTV rules the air and soundwaves alike--and sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll dominate adolescent bedrooms--high school sophomore Sage Kinsley doesn't just feel bizarre; he feels incomplete. Sure, it might be due to the constant stream of heavy workloads and astronomical extracurriculars, or the fact that part-time work at a local record-and-video store can barely fund his sneaky pirate radio show efforts. It could even be the mountainous debt threatening to claim his father's scholarly legacy, although this sort of debacle is far out of his hands.

But Sage should know better, and yet that seems to be the very issue. So why can't he figure out the main reason behind his outcast status? Why is he always found on the wrong side of the tracks? And more importantly... why does he keep dreaming about Old Heisman's disappearance by the Wishkah River?

While Sage isn't certain about many things, he's certainly sure of this: 1986 will be a year to remember. That is, if he can make it through the first half without succumbing to himself or the constant threats around him, during and beyond the night shift...
