Peter mette piede per la prima volta nella cittadina di Daisy, in California, quando è ancora un bambino ed è accompagnato da una sola certezza: suo cugino Michael si prenderà cura di lui. Poi Michael stringe amicizia col fragile e tormentato Bodi Kovacs e l'unica consolazione di Peter, dopo aver perso ogni possibilità di avere Bodi per sé, è che il cugino si occuperà anche di quest'ultimo. Ma la tragedia li colpisce e Michael si esilia dal loro mondo, gettando via l'affetto di chi l'ama di più. Sei anni dopo, Michael sta per tornare a casa in una cassa. Per distruggere un eroe è bastata una città piena di bigottismo e odio. Per reclamarlo serve una forza d'animo che né Peter né Bodi avevano sei anni prima. Da quando Michael li ha abbandonati, Bodi è perso e solo. Peter cerca di farlo suo e assumere il ruolo che avrebbe dovuto essere del cugino, ma prima di tutto lui e Bodi devono affrontare il passato. Devono affrontare Michael, i suoi pregi e i suoi difetti, la bellezza e la tristezza, e ricordarlo per quello che è stato davvero e non per quello che avrebbe potuto essere. È un gesto semplice che potrebbe distruggerli entrambi: passare al setaccio le macerie in fiamme del paradiso è un sistema infallibile per annichilire un cuore mortale che soffre.
