Reminiscent of "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "Stand by Me", this is an unforgettable debut novel from a talented new author. It is 1967, and eleven-year old Charlie York lives in Angel's Rest, deep in the mountains of the American South. His town is a poor boy's paradise - until a shotgun blast kills Charlie's father and puts his mother on trial for murder. When reclusive veteran, Hollis Thrasher, is also linked to the death, Charlie must embark on a dangerous midnight journey so that the truth about what he witnessed that fateful day can finally be revealed.
