Description

The book follows 15-year-old Keegan Flannery, who was born a twin but survived while his brother Michael did not. Two weeks before his sixteenth birthday, Keegan has a prophetic dream about his own death and becomes convinced he must atone for surviving by committing suicide before turning sixteen. The story explores his journey as he joins his school's wrestling team and gains new insight into life, death, and his family's troubled past.
