When Adam Blake lands the best elective ever in his senior year, serving as an aide to the school psychologist, he thinks he's got it made. Sure, it means a lot of sitting around, which isn't easy for a guy with ADHD, but he can't complain, since he gets to spend the period texting all his friends. Then the doctor asks him to track down the troubled freshman who keeps dodging her, and Adam discovers that the boy is Julian--the foster brother he hasn't seen in five years.

Adam is ecstatic to be reunited. At first, Julian seems like the boy he once knew. He's still kind hearted. He still writes stories and loves picture books meant for little kids. But as they spend more time together, Adam realizes that Julian is keeping secrets, like where he hides during the middle of the day, and what's really going on inside his house. Adam is determined to help him, but his involvement could cost both boys their lives.

It was beautifully painful, devastating with a little spark of hope. I don't think I ever cried this much while reading a book. At moments I couldn't even breathe properly. I love Julian. He has such a kind heart and deserved nothing of what happened to him (except meeting Adam). I rarely care for characters as much as for him. It's sad the book ended so soon. I hope he can become happy. Truly. I also love Adam. He's a good friend/brother. His care for Julian warmed my heart and his parts made me survive this book. I would have turned into a river without him. I think the ending has it's flaws, as have Emerald and a few of the adults (especially the teachers) in this book. But at least concerning the characters: flaws are a human thing and honestly I simply cannot give this book anything but 5 stars.
