Opis

Choose the novel that outperformed John Grisham's Bleachers, Stephen King's Wolves of the Calla and Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code. On a hazy summer day, during a treasure hunt on a coastal beach, each brother makes his own choice. For Terry Polson, it's a conch shell that magically mimics the sound of the ocean when held to the ear. For his brother Billy, it's a pocketful of silver change, the kind that shines flawlessly and jingles unmistakably all the way to the bank. As the boys mature into their teens, peer pressure, parental influences and the desire for acceptance cause them to question their choices. Is life about creativity and imagination or money and materialism? The answer only becomes more puzzling and difficult when unforeseen tragedy strikes. Suddenly the boys are forced to reconsider everything in the midst of their most formative and challenging years. How do they turn out? Is one right and the other wrong? What are the consequences of their choices? Is either of them happy or not? In the end only you can decide.
