Refresh, Refresh is a raw, emotionally powerful coming-of-age story about fathers, sons, and the invisible cost of war. In a small, dead-end town, Josh, Cody, and Gordon are counting the days until their fathers return safely from the war in Iraq—while secretly dreaming of escape themselves.

On the brink of high school graduation, the boys are forced to grow up fast. With no clear role models, mounting anger, and futures that feel increasingly out of reach, they must make life-altering decisions while holding on to hope that their fathers will come home alive. Gritty, compassionate, and unforgettable, Refresh, Refresh captures the fear, confusion, and resilience of young men left behind by war.
