Something I am not / Cher Gatto.

Gatto, Cher, (author.).

Summary:

"A father who never loved him... A woman who stole his worth... A brother he couldn't protect... Where does someone run in the face of his deepest shame? Billy McQueen works to keep his life together... and concealed. At seventeen, he can almost balance senior year with the illicit activities at home. Almost. Until he gets too close to the truth and finds he now has a price on his head. Sold by his own father into the modern-day slave trade, Billy is forced to fight for is his freedom and for his little brother who is next in line. In the end, win or lose, he must make a choice: to become either the man he hates or the man he's destined to become. SOMETHING I AM NOT is for anyone who has ever questioned who he is, why he is here, and whether the world would be a better place without him." (back cover)
