YA
Sixteen-year-old Frankie lives in a small New Mexico town. His loyalty is put to the test when his brother's rivalry with the son of the richest family in town turns violent. Voorhees presents a believable portrait of a Mexican American kid wrestling with the shifting social dynamics of high school--and fighting to stay true to himself through it all.
