Summary
Mike Wheeler is coming apart at the seams.
Home is no longer a place he wants to return to, his friends are slipping out of reach, and the numbness he carries feels heavier than grief ever did. Paired with a lost friend on an English project, Mike is forced into a quiet, uncomfortable proximity with the past he’s been avoiding.
Their time in the library is strained and careful, marked by silences. Mike doesn’t ask the right questions. He doesn’t look too closely at his own unraveling. He just keeps moving, even as the ground beneath him disappears.
As nights grow colder and choices grow more desperate, Mike finds himself pushed farther from home than he ever meant to go. In a town full of ghosts and half-forgotten dreams, two boys circle each other in the aftermath of everything they’ve lost, both convinced it’s safer not to want too much.
Some lights are meant to stay distant. Others refuse to go out
Or
A group project in which Mike and Will are forced to come together.
