In the hallowed halls of Seabrook College, a shocking event unfolds: the untimely death of a student named Skippy.

The narrative also weaves in the complexities of teenage rivalries and forbidden desires, particularly involving Carl, a local drug dealer vying for the same affection. This darkly comic novel explores themes of friendship, obsession, and the often-absurd realities of adolescence, all while grappling with the profound question of what truly leads to Skippy's demise.
