Opis

Who killed Carlton Greene on the night of July 4th, 1957? In the summer of 1967, sixteen year old Billy Scott has to find out and if he reveals it to the world, he will be killed as well. After receiving a car stored in the family garage as a graduation present from his cold, calculating father, things begin to happen that nearly send Billy over the brink. As bad luck would have it, Carlton is revealed to be the eldest son of Billy's best friend and mentor, Amos Greene, a seventy five year old grandson of a slave who helps open the door to Billy's future. He can't tell Mr. Greene who he is beginning to suspect, caused Carlton's death or the evidence he has discovered, until he can prove it. Using the evidence as a lead, Billy begins to investigate the past using newspaper files and asking questions of the local police. As word gets around, people he knows or meets begin to act strangely toward him and repeated attempts are made on Billy's life. But, unbeknownst to Billy and his enemies, a powerful ally from another dimension is watching over him. A story spanning decades, reveals the highs and lows of adolescent wishful thinking, and the awkwardness of stepping up to the plate in the daunting world of manhood. The first tastes of young romance, of shocking discoveries and bitter blood reveal that the ties that bind are often the ties that blind. Follow Billy when he discovers that in a cruel world that never waits, love proves nothing is, too late.
