(1) YA Alex tells of his classmate's drowning and the guilt he carries. Weighing on him are secrets that he and friend Glenn are hiding. The characters' relationships become increasingly complex as their identities--Alex's as a "Good, Solid Kid," for instance--get murkier. The buttoned-up boarding school setting makes the perfect backdrop to this tense dictation of secrets, lies, manipulation, and the ambiguity of honor.
