Tony Gonzalez never planned on raising his younger brother. But when Joey has nowhere else to go, Tony takes him in — and drags Joey into the orbit of Nate, whose desert compound thrives on guns, weed, and apocalyptic dreams.
Just down the street, Katie Harrison wants out of Cordero as badly as Tony does. Together, they might have one chance at escape — if Tony can keep Joey alive long enough to take it.
Fans of Elmore Leonard’s darkly funny crime tales and S.E. Hinton’s raw coming-of-age stories will feel right at home in Cordero.
