A Million Tiny Missiles all at Once

About the book

Being a teen’s a tough gig, but what if one gig could save your family?

Elias’s brain is a swamp of fears and bad things. His once-loving brother Bo has become a stranger, and his parents are falling apart.

When Bo falls in with dangerous people, Elias decides to bring his family back together – but what begins as a simple pizza-night dream quickly spirals into chaos beyond belief.

Will Elias find a way to save them, or will they recognize what’s happening before it’s too late?
