A moving and explosive tale about what happens when tradition and the need to belong collide.

Frankie Rescio is struggling with the death of his sister. Next door, Lochie Marsh is about to have his world invaded by his estranged, pregnant half-sister and her layabout boyfriend. Despite tensions simmering just below the surface for both boys and their families, they form a bond that connects their different worlds. Until tribal lores threaten to bring everything crashing down.

Book Features:
    Archimede Fusillo felt compelled to tell about the challenges of being a male who is not expected to sway too much from the traditions and values of a tight Italian family, yet surrounded by peers who pushed against these same restrictions.
  • This book explores the fundamental things about growing up that never change: the desire to fit in and be accepted by one’s peers, the intrinsic urge to belong.
  • Archimede Fusillo has over 15 successful books to his name, an award-winning International Literature Fellowship, and over twenty years of appearing at hundreds of schools, universities, Librarian Conferences, Writing Festivals-including Melbourne, Sydney, Fusillo knows what his target audience wants to read and how to deliver it.
