Publisher's Note
On the mean streets of southeast Fresno, 19-year-old Eddie is just trying to get by. All he wants is to forget his violent past, hold down a job, and walk a straight line. But after his cousin's murder, Eddie finds himself drawn back into the cycle of violence. Set against the backdrop of a city sweltering in the grip of poverty, crime, and unfulfilled dreams, this is an unforgettable story of a young man struggling to survive in a world spiraling out of control.

Industry Reviews
"Soto has created a beautiful, touching, and truthful story about one young man struggling to keep his dignity and not bend to the will of the glue-sniffing locals....Soto's best fiction yet."
Voya - Katie O'Dell Madison (10/19/1997)

"The conclusion is swift and somewhat ambivalent, but Eddie is a character with whom readers will empathize as they alternately grieve and hope for him."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Janice M. Del Negro (11/19/1997)
