His manuscript has caught the attention of the literary agent, who offers him fame, fortune and a taste of the literary life. He can''t wait for his book to be shopped around to every editor in New York, except one: Avi Dietsch, a college rival and the novel''s ''inspiration.''When Avi gets his hands on the manuscript, he sees nothing but theft - and opportunity.
