The only things that keep him sane are his little sis his best friend and dream girl, Summer and the alcohol he stashes in his room. His mom’s practically a walking zombie, he’s lost most of his friends, and the press camps out on his lawn. ![]() Then his father was charged with the abuse and murder of four young boys and normal became a nightmare.
