Night Kites

Erick knows the family code: "Family is first. Toe the line. Fit in." At Seaville High his life is tame, predictable — hanging out with his girlfriend, Dill, and his pal Jack. Then Erick falls in love with Nicki Marr. Nicki's sort of scary. She's 17 going on 25. Every word she says, every move she makes, seems seductive — and aimed right at Erick. But she's Jack's girl... isn't she? Meeting Nicki teaches Erick about not fitting in. Then Erick learns that Pete, his seemingly perfect big brother, doesn't fit in either. Nicki and Pete aren't afraid to be different, aren't afraid to love — but the price they pay is high. Erick longs for that freedom but is caught between his longing and the safe, secure world of his family.
