(4) YA Sammy doesn't think she'll ever leave Lake Bittersweet, Oklahoma, but at least summer is looking up after she meets charismatic visiting city-boy Brayton. Then Sammy's ex-con father disappears, and the teen sets out for answers and vengeance while trying to keep her six-year-old half-sister--and Brayton--in her life. Two-dimensional characters nevertheless have a roughness that feels at home in the well-evoked gritty setting.
