Lambda Award-winning novelist Blair Mastbaum (Clay's Way) returns with a story of sexual obsession turned violent in Manhattan's East Village. Kurt Smith can't get over the split with his ex-boyfriend. When Kurt's failure to reconnect becomes more than he can handle, the line between fantasy and reality is blurred-and even Kurt can't be sure he's not responsible for the killings making local headlines.

Set against the dazzling backdrop of Hawaii’s Oahu and Kauai islands, Clay’s Way seethes with energy and hormonally charged nihilism. For 15-year-old Sam, a wanna-be punk rocker who writes bad haiku poetry, his middle-class suburban life feels like a prison. Mistaking lust for fate, Sam becomes obsessed with Clay, a 17-year-old surfer, outwardly cool but equally adrift. The violence and tumult of Clay’s search for identity propels him, with desperately confused Sam in his wake, through the hardest decisions and obstacles of their young lives.
24-year-old Blair Mastbaum graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, with a degree in fine arts. He was a fashion model for six years, and now lives in Beverly Hills, where he is hard at work on his second novel.
