Plans to make friends with church-going kids shatter the minute Conor enters the new school. The hunger to fit in drives him to those that his eighth-grade teacher warned against. He discovers that each new friend carries a unique brand of trouble and that not fitting in is what they have in common.
He questions God, teachers, parents, and life itself. He accuses the ghost that came with the pawnshop guitar of taking sides with authority figures.
Cigarettes, beer, and fast girls don’t smother the fire that burns within Conor. He turns to Gabbie, the guitar, the only thing he has to call his own.
