There, they befriend an old man with a hidden past and together stand up to a hate group. By year’s end, neither the family nor the man will be the same. A story of race and redemption. 28,000 words

About the author

I loved reading since age ten. Every summer break, I would read Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, and dream about running away from home, and floating down a river in a raft. When I took “American Lit” in school and saw how the teachers almost worshiped Hemingway, Faulkner, and the other American authors, I wanted to give the world stories people would read and love one hundred years from now.
