Summary
Seventeen-year-old queer adoptee Manny, now homeless, sets out to find his sister Elena, who is still enmeshed in Christ's Dominion, the community that abandoned him, but the journey is fraught with danger, as he is forced to confront the religious trauma from his pastIt's been a year since Manny was cast out of his family and driven into the wilderness of the American Southwest. He has survived by following some hard-learned rules-- but now he's taking a chance with the Varela family, whose son Carlos, seems to promise a new future. Eli, living in a secluded community, has been raised to believe his obedience to the rule will rewarded-- but why can't he remember his past? The discovery of an unidentified body in the hills of Idyllwild, California, draws both Manny and Eli into facing their biggest fears-- and confront their own identity. -- adapted from jacket
