the long version

Explosive conflicts arise when Derrick, a black teenager, makes two earthshaking discoveries: his father is gay, and his father has a lover - who's a white teenage boy Derrick's age. In this fast-moving novel, the three sides of a triangle collide: the relationship between a gay father and his son, the complex love between the father and his teenage boyfriend, and - most provocatively - the sibling rivalry between the two teens, one straight and one gay, one black and one white, both tough, hip '90s urban youth.
