Friends since childhood, Logan Ritter and Hunter James are now only held together by family ties and a history of codependency. Logan is a doctoral student and teacher who wraps himself in work, Hunter's parents, and his other long-time friend, Missy. Meanwhile, Hunter, struggling to balance his summer undergraduate courses, a part-time job, and his ever-increasing alcoholism, becomes obsessed with a misguided young woman he's never met. As their university town experiences unprecedented fear in the summer of 2002, each man’s life becomes blurred by self-absorption, assumptions, and full-on delusions. When faced with some undeniable truths, Logan and Hunter must decide how to untangle themselves from the false realities to which they've been clinging.
Excerpt
“What
were you doing this time last year?”
“What?”
Missy’s randomness still throws me off sometimes.
“Think
about it. What were you doing with your life this time last year?”
“Finishing
my Masters thesis on The Canterbury Tales?” Not sure if I’m right, my answer
comes out like a question.
“Exactly.
And what was Hunter doing?”
“I
don’t know. Tell me.”
“How
the fuck should I know? He was probably sitting on his grungy couch drinking
vodka from a plastic handle.”
