Next to Andy Morrow, my best friend. </i> <p/> Lots of people think Doug Hanson is a freak -- he gets beat up after school, and the girl of his dreams calls him a worm. Doug's only refuge is creating an elaborate bridge for the model railroad in his basement and hanging out with his best friend, Andy Morrow, a popular football star who could date any girl in school. Doug and Andy talk about everything -- except what happened at the Tuttle place a few years back. <p/> <i>It does not matter to Andy that we live in completely different realities. I'm Andy's best friend. It does not matter to Andy that we hardly ever actually do anything together.</i> <p/> As Doug retreats deeper and deeper into his own reality, long-buried secrets threaten to destroy both Doug and Andy -- and everything else in Doug's fragile world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Echoes of Faulkner. <p/> -- <i>Kirkus</i><br><br>Hautman once again proves his keen ability for characterization and for building suspense. <p/> -- <i>Publishers Weekly, </i> starred review<br><br>With its excellent plot development and unforgettable, heartbreaking protagonist, this is a compelling novel of mental illness. <p/> -- <i>School Library Journal, </i> starred review<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Pete Hautman is the author of National Book Award-winning novel <i>Godless</i>, <i>Sweetblood</i>, <i>Hole in the Sky</i>, <i>Stone Cold</i>, <i>The Flinkwater Factor</i>, <i>The Forgetting Machine</i>, and <i>Mr. Was</i>, which was nominated for an Edgar Award by the Mystery Writers of America, as well as several adult novels.
