Description

From the author of the bestselling Holes, this thrilling, funny and deeply satisfying novel features two of Camp Green Lake's former inmates.

Three years after Camp Green Lake, Armpit is taking small steps to turn his life around, but then he gets mixed up with his old friend X-ray in a ticket scalping scam...
Upon returning to Austin, Armpit set five goals for himself.
Five small steps.
1. Graduate High School
2. Get a job.
3. Save money
4. Avoid situations that might turn violent. And
5. Lose the name Armpit.

He's working for a landscape gardener because he is good at digging holes, he is going to school and enjoying his first proper romance, but is he going to be able to stay out of trouble? Armpit finds all his small steps become much bigger than he anticipated.
