Petey has the miseries. They come, hang in, and don't leave for long. It's more than routine adolescent anguish. He has cause. His parents have separated. He's been moved with his "Pop" from the urban world he knows best, throbbing Brooklyn in New York City, to the rural blankness of an upstate New York village where his father, an ex-cop, has taken a job as a truant officer in the local high school. Petey is adrift and so is his Pop. And Petey, in his deep aloneness, has begun to play a dangerous and suicidal game with his father's .38.
