YA
Sent to live with his preacher father in Tennessee, rebellious seventeen-year-old Luke is immediately targeted by bully Grant. When a freak accident involving both boys lands Grant in a coma, Luke must decide whether to maintain his victimhood or embrace the power shift. Spears expertly develops a protagonist with deep flaws, but the circumstances surrounding Luke's abrupt move from DC are maddeningly vague.
