Ethan Morgan never asked to be firstborn—and definitely didn’t buy into all the ridiculous tradition that came with it. From the time he could talk though, Andrew, Ethan’s twin and younger brother by mere seconds, begged for the honor.

Do the sins of the fathers revisit their sons, or do the ghosts of the past make believers of them?
