Overview

Syd Callens moves to Augusta, GA six weeks before the start of ninth grade and her beloved father's funeral. Syd proudly withdraws, refusing to cry at her father's funeral: She wallows in grief, resisting help from her mother or the outside, including an extension of friendship from Seth, her first crush-a boy who's already spoken for and whose eyes look like the deep end of the pool. She also deals with the ensuing humiliation that comes when a girl realizes that everyone at school has mistaken her for a boy. Syd feels an instant connection to Mel, a fellow oddball who clunks around Greenbrier in army boots and dresses. The attraction turns to mistrust however, when Mel divulges a secret Sydney takes for a lie. The girls are mere inches from forging a friendship but then Mel mysteriously disappears, leaving Sydney alone to wonder what happened and to face daily abuse from Greenbrier's two meanest girls-Ashley and Megan.
