Alexander, who wants to be called Xan, is a misfit. He has never fit in--not in academics, sports, or social life. He's an awkward loner who hasn't been able to find his place in the world. Robert is Xan's half-brother, and unlike Xan, Robert seems to have his life together. At eighteen, he's enrolled in community college with a decent job and a great girlfriend. Robert often teases his brother, but he's also his biggest supporter. No matter what, he's got Xan's back.

A teen runs away from his broken life and invents a new one in this "absorbing and satisfying" (Booklist) adventure from Printz Honor winner and National Book Award finalist Chris Lynch. Crystal City called for him, and Kevin answered. And why wouldn't he? His relationship with his father is broken--as is his arm.

Making friends seems easy with his new persona, especially when a group of homeless beach bums instantly includes him in their crew. But do they like the real Kevin, or the guy he's pretending to be? And will this new lifestyle help Kevin escape from the misery of his former life--or will it drag him right back into the reasons he left home.…
