Paperback. Zustand: Good. To Rachel, there's no one in the world like her uncle Jake. Handsome and mysterious, he fills her with stories, sends postcards and gifts from exotic places. And he's so much more fun to be with than her parents, who are always fighting. When she learns he's gay, she keeps it under wraps. And when he gets sick, she doesn't even tell her best friends.
