Prodigal Brothers by Steven Peterson

Matt is the self-righteous older brother who resents how his parents always loved his reckless younger brother Billy the most. Matt jumps at the chance to drag Billy on a two-thousand-mile road trip across America and into alcoholism rehab. Will that prove Matt's greater worth to their stern father? Or will Matt discover that he is just as lost as Billy? A 3M1W comedy-drama.
