An outsider in his family, an outcast at school, and always outdone by his own clumsiness, Charlie hides behind his passion for music whenever he can.
But then the unimaginable happens and he is plunged head-first into a murky family secret and a red-hot infatuation with a rather unusual girl.
Stuck on a bus going down Route 66, with his life and hormones spiraling out of control, Charlie is forced to make a choice. Will he keep hiding in the shadows forever or step into the limelight and show his true colors?
Suitable for ages 15 and up.
