description: TWOC (verb): to steal an automobile, esp. for joyriding; etymology: taking without owner’s consent. Ever since the joyriding accident that killed his brother Jake and left Jake’s girlfriend Jools hideously scarred, Matt has been tortured by his inability to remember exactly what happened. He decides to reconstruct the events of that tragic day—but can he survive the accident a second time? This visceral, heartbreaking book probes deep into Matt’s psyche, where the terrible truth is hiding. In his first novel for teenagers, award-winning writer Graham Joyce skirts the shadowy line between truth and reality, life and death, action and consequences.
