As an adult, Skeezie reflects on the summer when his absent father returned home seeking reconciliation. As Skeezie tries to hold his fragile family life together, he explores his own emotions toward his parents and sisters, and is surprised by the bonds he feels. A satisfying conclusion to the Misfit books, with glimpses into adulthood for each member of the Gang of Five.
