<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This is a story of peer pressure and fear, physical strength and cowardice, teenage dreams and nightmares, and ridiculous plans and outcomes. With his outsized, alpha personality, my best friend Craig leads a ragtag gang of 13-year-old boys around by our noses. At his insistence, we run across a railroad trestle just yards ahead of a screaming train. At his dare, we lay down on an airport tarmac just feet beneath a landing plane. Why does Craig make us do such crazy things? And why in the world do we ever follow him? The answer is complicated especially when some really bad boys appear and Craig discovers that he can't push us any further.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This is a story of peer pressure and fear, physical strength and cowardice, teenage dreams and nightmares, and ridiculous plans and outcomes.
