Summary
"Thirteen-year-old Loyal Raines is supposed to stay close to home on a hot summer day in 1934. When he slips away for a quick swim in the river and finds a dead body, the ripples caused by his discovery will impact the town in ways no one could have imagined"--
Beverly, West Virginia, 1934. Thirteen-year-old Loyal Raines is supposed to stay close to home on a hot summer day. Instead he slips away for a quick swim in the river-- and finds a dead body. He runs to the mountain cabin of his mostly absentee father, frantically trying to communicate the news with his hands. Creed has played a distant part in his son's life due to his own fear and guilt over Loyal's deafness. As the impact of the murder ripples through their town, Creed longs to reclaim the life he abandoned. -- adapted from back cover
