title: Preppy: The Life and Death of Samuel Clearwater, Part One
author: Frazier, T.M.
description: Samuel Clearwater, A.K.A Preppy, likes bowties, pancakes, suspenders, good friends, good times, good drugs, and a good f*ck.
  
  He's worked his way out from beneath a hellish childhood and is living the life he's always imagined for himself. When he meets a girl, a junkie on the verge of ending it all, he's torn between his feelings for her and the crippling fear that she could be the one to end the life he loves.
  
  Andrea ‘Dre' Capulet is strung out and tired.
  
  Tired of living for her next fix. Tired of doing things that make her stomach turn. Tired of looking in the mirror at the reflection of the person she's become. Just when she decides to end it all, she meets a man who will change the course of both their lives forever.
  
  And their deaths.
  
  For most people, death is the end of their story.
  
  For Preppy and Dre, death was only the beginning.
