Summary
His eldest brother, ten years Izzy’s senior, was the only member of the family that had ever learned his letters, and he had far too many other responsibilities to bother reading the words on his siblings’ skin to them. Their father spent most days in a drunken stupor, laying in wait for his children to make the mistake of coming in grabbing range.
Some days, tracing the mysterious words scrawled across his collarbone served as the only comfort Izzy found from the oppressive eyes of his family and the never ending toil of indentured servitude. If his sister’s stories were true—and she did lie sometimes, Izzy knew—then those words meant that God had designed someone, somewhere as the perfect other half of his soul. Izzy just needed to find them.
At age sixteen, Izzy became a pirate and gave up on God.
