An unflinching verse novel about a teenage boy who is sexually assaulted in an attack he struggles to remember by the award-winning author of Gut Feelings

Jay wakes in a park, beaten and bruised. He can't remember what happened the night before. But he has suspicions. Jay realises he has been raped -- and that his ex-boyfriend may have been involved. Counselling sessions cause Jay to question everything. His new friend Rain encourages his pursuit of justice. Jay wants answers, but his search will lead him down a perilous path. Once the trigger is touched you can't tell who to trust.
