Summary:
For sixteen-year-old Ryan, the water is where he finds his freedom. Every since childhood, when he realized that he would never walk like other people, he has loved the water where gravity is no longer his enemy. but he never imagined he would become his small town's hero by rescuing a schoolmate from drowning. Jack is also attracted to the water, but for him it promises permanent escape. Disappearing altogether seems better than living through one more day of high school where he is dogged by rumors about his sexuality. Ryan saves Jacks's life, but he also keeps his secret. Is it true that by saving someone's life, you become responsible for him?
