Synopsis
Mac had everything going for good grades, a position on the high school soccer team, friends, a supportive family, and Jenny.But now things are different. Suddenly, Mac has lost his sense of humor and his tolerance for his funny, loving family. He's avoiding Jenny, throwing sucker punches at friends, and flunking classes. He can't seem to find anything good anymore—about his days, about the people around him, or about himself.Everyone is concerned and Mac is referred to Mrs. Resnick, a school counselor. It is Mrs. Resnick who, in a style all her own, finally unravels the mystery behind the bewildering and frightening change in Mac's personality."I can see something or somebody's really hurt you, Mac," she says."I don't want to talk about this.""About being hurt?""I said, I don't want to talk about it."John Maclean's story is about a complex and very real adolescent. Mac's voice is a haunting one, and readers will grow to care deeply as they watch him stumble through his days, blinded by a rage and a pain that he cannot, or will not, name.
