YA
Recognizably clever when constructing architectural models, Doug reveals that it's human interaction he can't figure out. This unreliable narrator reports one near-perfect relationship, the one he has with his best friend, Andy. Gradually, however, that relationship is revealed not to be what it seems. The tension in this psychological thriller comes from entering Doug's private hell and learning what put him there.
