'What was the space between friendships and family? One drop of blood and all the rest, between right and wrong, the space between what was good and needed and what was pure evil.'
Nick and Sam were brothers - blood brothers. When they performed the ceremony at eight years old, they sealed a bond between them that made them best friends and brothers, just as the universe intended.
Growing up, Sam spent most of his time at Nick's house because of his 'situation' at home... which was getting harder to bear, and to hide. He was like a shadow at home but a second son in Nick's household.
At sixteen years old, events begin to collide into a terrifying climax, where the power of friendship is the only thing that can pull them through. The ultimate question is asked of them, "Just how far would you go to save someone you love?"
