Alex Beekman is 17 and living in Vermont with his family as this companion to Twelve Days in August (Holiday House, 1993) begins. When Alex's father sells one of his TV scripts and has to return to L.A. for the summer (possibly longer), Alex jumps at the chance to go along even though his mother and twin sister decide to stay in the east. The teen knows that his best friend, Tito, has been disowned by his family in California but does not know why. Tito's trail passes through a Venice tattoo shop to Topanga Canyon, where Alex finds him living with a man and recovering from a savage gay-bashing delivered by his own father. At first Alex is shocked, but eventually he realizes that he, too, is gay.
