Rites of Passage

Adulthood sucks. With college graduation behind them, Seth Thompson and Bilal al-Mansoori enjoy their last carefree summer. But the perfect future Seth's envisioned since high school-moving to New York to pursue a career as an artist-doesn't appeal to city-phobic Bilal. A job offer allowing Bilal to remain in upstate New York drives a wedge between them, and Seth's family's well-meaning interference doesn't help at all. A trip to the UK for Bilal's sister's wedding offers a chance to get back on the same page. But their holiday is abruptly cut short when the unthinkable happens... And Seth faces the very real possibility that he may never see the man he loves alive again.
