| Summary |
When seventeen-year-old trans guy Max meets Gloss, he loses himself in an all-consuming relationship, but after his ex-summer romance turned bully turns up dead and Gloss takes the blame, Max veers dangerously close to being implicated as he desperately tries to uncover the truth. |
|
Things have been tough for newly out trans guy Max since his summer romance, Danny, turned into his bully. This year, his plan is to keep his head down and graduate. Things change when new It-girl Gloss becomes interested in an introverted skater kid, but Max blooms in the hothouse of her attention. Caught between romance and obsession, he'll do whatever it takes to keep her on his side: haircuts, makeovers, drugs, parties. When someone gets killed at a rager gone wrong, Max refuses to believe Gloss did it. Searching for the truth, Max veers dangerously close to being implicated. -- adapted from jacket |
