About the book

When confronted by his release from the mental ward, Marcus has to face the reality that he has changed and that the life he left behind isn't the one he is going back to. Before he can leave, though, he meets Victoria. She is everything he's never going to be or have, and she doesn't belong there, not like he does. Despite the fact that Marcus's release paper is signed, he is broken beyond repair. Joe is angry and hurt, and no one gets it, except maybe for Marcus. But Marcus isn't quite like him; Marcus is on the way out. Marcus is okay. Then unexpectedly, Marcus wants to hang out with Joe. Perhaps Joe too can overcome his past.
