Our society is in the midst of many epidemics-obesity, diabetes, depression, heart disease, cancer, and addiction-to name a few. But in reality, there is only one epidemic-and it threatens our entire way of life. It's the root cause and driving force behind every other epidemic our nation faces. This neurological epidemic is an unforeseen consequence of our 21st Century high-tech, stressed-out lifestyles that has our nervous systems reeling as daily stress forces our bodies to pump out stress hormones in near-lethal amounts, causing anxiety, depression, insomnia, weight gain, and susceptibility to disease. It's a national crisis of epic proportions.

One summer can change everything... Kenyon Baker is not happy about moving to Cape Cod halfway through high school, but his parents have decided to retire there to run a summer cottage colony. At least they''ll let him have his own darkroom, provided he helps prepare the colony for guests. The early hours and hard work compound Ken''s unhappiness, but just when he thinks he''ll never make it through the summer, he meets Razzle Penney. Skinny, buzz-cut Razzle isn''t afraid to act differently from everyone else, and she simultaneously becomes Ken''s friend and his muse, as he takes a series of inspiring photos of her. However, Razzle also introduces Ken to beautiful, aggressive Harley, causing a rift in their friendship. Just when it seems things can''t get more complicated, Razzle''s mother breezes into town, and Razzle learns more about her past than she wants to know....
