Lookout offers a gripping dual coming-of-age: Cody''s from stoic ranch kid to hotshot firefighter to resilient woman learning to rely on others, and Josiah''s as he struggles to thrive in a world that has misunderstood him.

Lookout brings to life a family coming out to itself, at home in a new and nuanced American West.
