Will Reid is a gawky kid who wears fake turtlenecks, is obsessed with his ant farm and is lousy at gym. In other words, he's the perfect target for Shane, the Grade 9 bully.

Kate has been Will's friend since elementary school, but defending him in high school now comes at a real cost...

And then there's Devan...

Devan has been part of Shane's bullyboy team until he realizes that it's not so smart to mindlessly back up each nasty attack of Shane's.

Together, the three teens struggle to find their way out of the classic dilemmas of life: how not to be a bystander to bullying, how to stand up for your friends and how to deal with consuming rage.

Young readers will find much food for thought in this compelling, crisply told story of compassion confronting intimidation.
