Now in paperback, from award-winning author James Klise, this noir-ish historical YA novel follows sixteen-year-old Joe Garbe in a life-changing summer as he discovers queer community in 1930s Chicago and gets snared in the city's crooked underbelly.

Fifteen-year old Jamie Bates has a fail-safe strategy for surviving high school: fit in. Keep a low profile. And, above all, protect his biggest secret - he's gay. After accepting flirtatious advances from Celia, the richest and most beautiful girl in school, Jamie steals an experimental new drug that's supposed to cure his attraction to guys.
