  Three young men from very different homes, just coming into their own sexuality, bond at a time when information about homosexuality is scarce to the average teen. Their strong connection cannot survive high school and heartache, however, and their triangle collapses under the weight of prejudice and a need to escape.
  Ten years later, Tucker is bitter and hurt by all the tragedy in his life since those long ago happier days. Reclusive, somewhat animalistic, and completely content to stay that way, he's brought up short by an unexpected confrontation with the past and feelings that won't stay buried.

  Attorney and recovering cocaine addict Sam DiCiccio didn't think she was ever going to see her ex-wife Amy Igarashi again, much less wind up defending her against felony insider trading charges. 
   
   
   
  But Amy's been falsely accused, and Sam, who's still in love with her, can't bear to watch her take the fall for a crime she didn't commit. Amy is holding on to resentment from their broken relationship and is hesitant to let Sam back into her life. But that all changes when her assets are frozen by a judge, and Sam is the best and only lawyer she can afford. 
   
   
   
  As Sam and Amy pull the threads of the alleged crime, they begin to unravel a mysterious corporate conspiracy that runs deep and wide. But as the clock ticks faster each day, the chance to prove Amy's innocence and keep her out of jail begins to slip away. 
   
   
   
  Sam and Amy keep inching closer to the truth, but each step draws them closer to shadowy enemies and amplifies the heat between them.

  Tensions rise as they compete in the inter-college races, the Bumps ... and as they prepare for their final race, the one that will determine if they win their oars, Dave still doesn't know if Archie is in the same boat as him, in more ways than one!

  Kazim Ali

  Kazim Ali is a poet, novelist, and essayist whose work explores themes of identity, migration, and the intersections of cultural and spiritual traditions. His poetry is known for its lyrical and expressive language, as well as its exploration of themes such as love, loss, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. "Sukun" means serenity or calm, and a sukun is also a form of punctuation in Arabic orthography that denotes a pause over a consonant. This Sukun draws a generous selection from Kazim's six previous full-length collections, and includes 35 new poems. It allows us to trace Ali's passions and concerns, and take the measure of his art: the close attention to the spiritual and the visceral, and the deep language play that is both musical and plain spoken.[sample poem]The Fifth PlanetCome, early summer in the mountains, and come, strawberry moon,and carry me softly in the silver canoe on wires to the summit, where in that way of late night useless talk, the bright dark asks me, "What is the thing you are most afraid of?" and I already know which lie I will tell.There were six of us huddled there in the cold, leaning on the rockslingering in the dark where I do not like to linger, looking up at thesharp round pinnacle of light discussing what shapes we saw—rabbit,man, goddess—but that brightness for me was haunted by no thing,no shadow at all in the lumens.What am I, what am I, I kept throwing out to the hustling silence.No light comes from the moon, he's just got good positioning and I suppose that's the answer, that's what I'm most afraid of,that I'm a mirror, that I have no light of my own, that I hang in empty spacein faithful orbit around a god or fatherneither of Whom will ever see me whole. I keep squinting to try to see Jupiterwhich the newspaper said would be found near the moon but it's nowhere, they must have lied. Or like god, there is too muchreflection, headsplitting and profane, scraping up every shadow,too much light for anyone to see.
