Summary

Incisive, haunting, and beautifully written, Bret Anthony Johnston's debut novel lays bare a family's hope and heartbreak in the aftermath of a devastating crime. This title explores the nature of love and forgiveness when a kidnapped son is returned home. Four years have passed since Justin Campbell's disappearance, a tragedy that rocked the small town of Southport, Texas. Did he run away? Did he drown in the bay? As the Campbells search for answers, they struggle to hold what's left of their family together. Then one afternoon, the impossible happens. The police call to report that Justin has been found in a nearby town, and he appears to be fine. And though the reunion is a miracle, Justin's homecoming exposes the deep rifts that have diminished his family; the wounds they all carry that may never fully heal. When a reversal of fortune lays bare the family's greatest fears - and offers perhaps their only hope for recovery - each of them must fight to keep the ties that bind them from permanently tearing apart.
