Brooks loves and adores his older brother, Oliver. That's why it was so hard---practically impossible, really---for him to have done what he did and told his parents about what Oliver wanted to do.

Now Oliver has been sent away. He's miserable, and Brooks's family is falling apart. His mom and dad are sad and scared, and it seems like nothing will ever be okay again. Maybe things would be better if Brooks had just kept his mouth shut. Can he and his family find the hope they need to keep going?
