Publisher's summary

A captivating debut novel about brothers who have drifted apart and the accident that will determine their future, written by an unforgettable new voice in fiction.

Some twins communicate in a secret language all their own. For Whiskey and Charlie Ferns, the two-way alphabet (alpha, bravo, charlie, delta) whispered back and forth over their crackly walkie-talkies is the best they can do. But as the brothers grow up, they grow apart. Whiskey is everything Charlie is not - bold, daring, carefree - and Charlie blames his brother for always stealing the limelight, always striving ahead while seeming to push Charlie back. By the time the twins reach adulthood, they are barely even speaking to each other.

When Charlie hears that Whiskey has been in a terrible accident and has slipped into a coma, he is shocked...although perhaps not devastated. But as days and weeks slip by, and the chances of Whiskey's recovering grow ever more slim, Charlie is forced to look back on their lives and examine whether Whiskey's actions were truly as unforgivable as Charlie believed them to be.

Excellent

I really enjoyed this book! The story, performance and ending were all fantastic! I added it to my library a while back, but kept passing over it. I’m sorry I didn’t listen to it sooner. I think I will listen to this again in the near future!!

Heartfelt

This was a wonderful story. I couldn’t stop listening. The narrator wasn’t the best. Sometimes Charlie sounded like an impression of an angry old man, and once or twice like Forrest Gump! But overall, I really enjoyed the story.

So moving

This book was such a sleeper for at one reason. I enjoyed every minute and the way it presented how complicated families can be. I enjoyed it and was sad for it to end .

Pleasurable Book

This book was so refreshing because it was not the same old thing. I passed over it several times before I decided to listen to it and I’m so glad that I trusted the reviews and gave it a chance. I was not disappointed. Great story. Great narrator.
