Summary
"Dallas thought he would stay with these guys forever. It was all so clear: he would move up through the ranks until Jack saw him as an equal, and one day he, too, would find a lost, lonesome boy on the streets and bring him into the fold, raising him in the way of the gang the way he had been. The fuzz and the city had been talking for months now about cleaning up the neighborhood, about scrubbing the streets clean of graffiti and needles and drunks passed out on the sidewalks, but they hadn't succeeded just yet. The gangs still controlled the turf, and Dallas felt unstoppable. Like he'd managed to take his shitty, screwed up life and squeeze something like happiness out of it.
This was, of course, before the night that found him kneeling beside a body, bloody switchblade in hand as the swirling lights of encroaching cop cars painted his face."
Or, Dally's life has always been about survival, even after being taken in by a gang led by the toughest hood in New York. It isn't until he arrives in Tulsa, chased out of the city by one violent act, that he realizes a crucial piece of his life that's been missing: friendship. But is it enough to save Dally from himself?

Summary
And it was 1985 and she was sitting at the kitchen table, holding Mom’s hand as she tearfully spoke to the police officers. “A red t-shirt and jeans,” she’d been saying. “With, with a checked shirt over it – he, uh, always wore Nikes – he didn’t take his keys. He didn’t even take his jacket.”
He was still wearing the Nikes – the same beat-up pair of Nikes.
She said, “You aren’t any older.”
Marty didn’t meet her eyes. “No.”

Summary
“Do you know who that is?”
Marty looked between her and the picture, his eyes wide, a half-formed answer on his lips. “I, uh – no?”
“That’s him.” Linda stabbed a finger at the photo. “That’s Calvin.” Marty looked blank. “Calvin Klein?” she said. “That guy mom dated before dad?”
“Huh?” said Marty.
“Do you seriously not see it?” she said. “He has your face, Marty! He has your exact face!”
Marty did another double take between her and the photo. “He does?”
Linda had a normal Friday night planned. She'd been going to watch TV and then maybe take a bubble bath. She wasn't planning on having the weirdest conversation of her life. She absolutely wasn't planning on an existential crisis.
