Description

Marcus and his foster brother, Henry, a Navaho, have always been close. Marcus doesn't mind letting Henry lead the way; after all, he's brilliant, good-natured, and a champion runner. But now that they are sixteen and Henry is dating the amazing Celia, and now that he's showing interest in his Navaho heritage and his family on the reservation, Marcus is left behind. Henry is turning toward a world where Marcus will never belong. But like Henry, Marcus must discover his own strengths and passions, including his feeling for the extraordinary girl next door.

Description

High school junior Marcus feels his entire world changing around him as Henry, the Navajo foster brother who has lived with him since the age of seven, starts to change his personality and wonder if he should return to his family's reservation in another state.
