(3) YA Andy, custodian's son and freshman pariah, begins a friendship with fellow outcast Blake. Rumors swirl about Blake having a gun in his locker, and he gradually gives Andy reason to believe he's planning violent retribution at their school. Van Cleave's verse novel is an engagingly interesting character study about the conflict between acceptance and integrity as Andy must decide what to do.
