(2) YA Leo's older brother, Caleb, has autism, epilepsy, and some developmental disabilities and has recently become physically aggressive. Leo, running away from Caleb out of necessity, finds a hidden talent and joins the high school cross-country and track teams. New friends help him maintain balance amidst the chaos. Leo's complicated relationship with Caleb and the suspenseful track races are the novel's strengths; the story ultimately takes a tragic turn.
