Notes from the Midnight Driver

When sixteen-year-old Alex hatches one of his possibly-not-so-brilliant plans to get his parents back together, it ends up backfiring in a major way (as in police officers being called to the scene - major).
Now, after being sentenced to do community service at an old folks home, Alex has one more thing to contend with: Solomon Lewis. Sol is a feisty senior who pours ice water in Alexs lap, tries to hook Alex up with a pixie-ninja master love interest, taunts the other patients, and loves to tell Alex off using inappropriate foreign words.
This is the story of Alex Gregory, his guitar, his bestgal pal, Laurie, and the friendship of a lifetime.
