When Boaz announces he's off to hike the Appalachian Trail, Levi knows he's lying. He's heading somewhere else. So Levi follows, determined to understand who his brother was, what he's been through, and how to bring him home again.

Levi was excited for his brother Boaz to come back from Iraq, but he was scared he wouldn't be the same. He just happened to be right. The moment Boaz stepped in the door he headed to his room and stayed there. He only came out for meals and when their grandfather, Dov, took them out for Chinese food, not only did Levi think it was strange that Bo insisted on walking instead of riding in the car with them, but while they were eating he announced that he was going to hike the Appalachian Trail. However, Levi didn't buy the story. He knew something was up.
