review 1: I shed a heap of tears for Danny and Harry, it was a really wrenching story. The way the rug kept getting pulled out from under Danny's feet was harrowing.However there were a few things i needed cleared up or it to have earnt more stars... for instance who was the mystery woman who called the shelter asking for Danny, was it Mary, Harry's mother, his own mother? who??!?!!?But the really big one for me is was Harry's transformation to Jack, at first i thought he must be in witness protection or something like that, he was wearing contacts and had a completely different appearance. I can understand a teen who has had dramatic changes in his life like harry would want to change his appearance but where did 'Jack' come from... The other big problem i had was, how on earth ... morewas it that Jack didn't recognise who David really was? I understand that people look really different once they've had a shave, but i'm sure at some point it HAD to click... that part of the story just really didn't click with me. I kept waiting for David to come clean and for Jack to say something like "i know i've just been waiting for you trust me, because i get that i proved to you once again that getting used to home comforts can be taken away again." but that didn't happen, Jack was totally clueless and i really can't understand how.i just needed a little bit more closure on some of the storylines that just ended abruptly when David came clean in the Epilogue.
review 2: This is a wonderful read. It's not too long, and I read it on my day off. Poor Danny has been disowned and removed from his family and friends. The trauma that effects him has caused him to lose almost all trust with anybody around him, leaving him trapped in a cycle of misery.Then he saves a young man named Harry and they develop a nice relationship. He tries not to get too close to Harry, but Danny can't help it. Then Harry disappears and Danny doesn't hear from him again.It really is a very emotional read with a hurt and battered MC, I'd recommend it to anyone. less

Good story though I'm a bit skeptical that Jack wouldn't have known who Danny/David really was.
