Description
Dane Washington and Billy D couldn't be more different. Dane is clever and popular, but he's also a violent rebel. Billy D has Down's Syndrome, plays by the rules and hangs out with teachers in his lunch break.
But Dane and Billy have more in common than they think - both their fathers are missing. Maybe they'll just have to suck up their differences and get on with helping each other find some answers.
Powerful, funny, moving - the ultimate coming-of-age novel.
Dead Ends is a breathtaking coming-of-age novel by Erin Lange - the novelist being compared to John Green and R. J. Palacio - about friendship, family, and the journey of a lifetime.
