Élevé dans les rues cruelles et près des nombreux studios d'Hollywood par un grand-père ressemblant à Yoda, CODY KENNEDY n'est pas conforme, ne rentre pas dans les cases. Il est quelqu'un d'incroyablement bizarre et vit pour perfectionner un trouble oppositionnel de provocation profonde. Dans un état constant de fascination pour les choses banales, Cody se pose de sérieuses questions comme : si le temps et l'espace sont courbés, alors d'où viennent toutes ces personnes hétéros ? Quand il n'écrit pas, on peut trouver Cody en train de dompter les vagues sur les rivages de l'ouest, s'interrogeant sur la valeur nutritionnelle des couchers de soleil, appréciant les pissenlits tant décriés, décrochant des câbles de guidage de colonnes et s'émerveillant de toutes les petites choses ordinaires.

Elpida: Book Two High school senior Michael Sattler leads a charmed life. Almost. He has great friends, parents who love him just the way he is, and he was a champion hurdler until someone took out his knee when they kidnapped his boyfriend. Yet, Michael is determined to make the USATF tryouts in spite of his injuries. Christy Castle is Michael's entire world. Healing from years of abuse, his abduction by a predator has left him hiding a new secret as he tries to start his life again. Together, Michael and Christy work to recover from their wounds in time to make prom and graduate high school. To complicate matters, Christy is astonished to learn a fellow victim from his native Greece has survived. Christy will stop at nothing to bring him to the US to keep him safe. But the prosecution of Christy's kidnapper looms large in their futures and the struggle to return to normal only worsens. Christy's past continues to haunt them and, when the prosecution turns ugly and Christy's new life is torn apart, only their unrelenting courage and determination can save them from the nightmare that threatens to destroy their future together.
