Sixteen-year-old Troy spends the summer with his friends Gabe and Tom, working on Gabe's father's ranch, riding horses, and camping under the stars. When the town bully comes after them, Troy's story builds to a devastating climax. The book's classic Western setup is expertly overlaid with complex modern-day characters and situations to create a timely tale about friendship and loss.
