Fiction
When Daniel Musgrove's family moves to a small Mississippi
town at the beginning of his junior year, he faces all the
pain and thrills of adolescence, with extra helpings of
hormones and humiliation. But then he meets Tim, a fellow
outsider, and the two become fast friends. You only need
one best friend, Daniel reasons, to make it through high
school alive. Together, they negotiate the triumphs and tribulations of
junior year: going to the prom in sky blue tuxes — it's
1973, after all — playing in an original Baptist musical
entitled "Christ!," and an unforgettable encounter with
their secret heroes, Sonny and Cher. But when the first-ever black prom queen of Minor High
School is hit by a car and emerges from her coma believing
she's white, Daniel and Tim find themselves caught up in a
shocking chain of events that leads to a shattering climax.
