Synopsis: WHEN 15-YEAR-OLD MICK Nichols opens the wrong e-mail, he learns a terrible secret: His stepmother is having an affair with a man named Alexander Selkirk. Mick is stunned. Should he tell his father, confront his stepmother, or keep it all to himself? And who, exactly, is Alexander Selkirk? Mick becomes obsessed with the infidelity, in spite of some serious distractions. Distractions like Lisa Doyle, the religious field-hockey player with the coppery red hair. Like the surprising (but appreciated) affections of Myra Vidal, a famously gorgeous college freshman with a secret of her own. And at the moment Mick discovers Selkirk's true identity, he realizes his problems are all zipped up together--and that he may have to go to drastic lengths to untangle them."The McNeals spin a wonderfully rich story."--Kirkus Reviews"A well-honed novel. . . . Readers will be sucked in."--Publishers WeeklyFrom the Hardcover edition.
