Finch and Violet meet in the oddest of places...both are on the ledge of the bell tower at school, contemplating suicide. Finch and Violet have nothing in common---Violet’s got friends everywhere, but Finch is friendless...Violet has two loving parents and Finch’s parents have checked out of the parenting game...Violet is easygoing and compliant, but Finch is a loose cannon---but they inexplicably become friends.
