Quick read. Leo‘s mom has been deployed, dad is working long hours. That puts Leo, 16, “second in command.” He looks out for his younger siblings.
Jack, 13, is angry. Falls in with the wrong crowd. Leo tries to help.

Told in verse, this is a great novel to hand to some reluctant readers. From West 44 Books. So glad I found these — current, relevant, engaging for reluctant readers.
