Opis

Royce Kennedy believes he has the town of Rusty Knob and its citizens in the palm of his hand. For altruistic reasons, of course. A real man takes care of his land and the people on it, whether they want to accept the help or not. After fostering an orphan, adopting underprivileged kids, creating businesses to bring jobs back to the area, donating his time, energy, and money by founding the Community Growth: Life Skills Center, people are beginning to wonder if the man is running a campaign to earn the status of a saint. Royce's family is getting frustrated by idly watching their patriarch spread himself too thin, because he won't allow them to shoulder his burdens or their own. Drastic measures are taken before the man can see reason. When the dust finally settles, Royce realizes he's been taking care of everyone but himself. But there's a problem with sorting out your issues, with the clarity of mind, you can't hide from the good, bad, and downright filthy secrets buried in the depths of your past. With dark, violent, depraved skeletons, Rusty Knob's patriarch isn't as pure of soul as he appears to be. Will he finally surrender and accept the help to buff the tarnish away? Just because it's the moral thing to do, doesn't mean it's the right thing for you.
