Summary

After Diego lands himself on probation for fighting, he doesnâÈçt trust his probation officer, Mr. Vidas. But as he begins to open up, Diego realizes that he needs Mr. VidasâÈçs help to get his anger under control. To do that, Diego will need to face the nightmares from his past head-on and confront the memories heâÈçs been avoiding. Will anyone even believe him if he tells the truth about his stepfather? Award-winning author Alex Sanchez writes about a teenâÈçs very real struggle to overcome his anger and take control of his life.
