WHEN 15-YEAR-OLD MICK Nichols opens the wrong e-mail, he learns a terrible secret: His stepmother is having an affair with a man named Alexander Selkirk. Mick is stunned. Should he tell his father, confront his stepmother, or keep it all to himself? And who, exactly, is Alexander Selkirk? Mick becomes obsessed with the infidelity, in spite of some serious distractions. Distractions like Lisa Doyle, the religious field-hockey player with the coppery red hair. Like the surprising (but appreciated) affections of Myra Vidal, a famously gorgeous college freshman with a secret of her own. And at the moment Mick discovers Selkirk’s true identity, he realizes his problems are all zipped up together—and that he may have to go to drastic lengths to untangle them.

From the Inside Flap:
When 15-year-old Mick reads an e-mail never meant for his eyes, his world is shattered. His stepmother?his lovable, beautiful stepmother?is cheating with a man named Alexander Selkirk. And Mick?s dad?his quiet, loyal dad?has no idea.
Mick is obsessed and burdened with his secret, and nothing can distract him. Not his crush on Lisa Doyle, that Mormon girl on the field hockey team. Not the surprising (but appreciated) affections of Myra Vidal, a famously gorgeous college freshman. Not the strange robberies at the Village Greens, the old folks? home where Mick works. And on the day he meets Alexander Selkirk, out of the blue, Mick realizes all his problems are all zipped up together?and that he may have to go to drastic lengths to find
the solutions.
