Materials and/or information contained here is not in final form and should not be relied upon without the publisher's prior authority.From the author of the acclaimed A Place Called Wiregrass comes the story of a young boy torn between the grandparents he has grown to depend on and the mother he wants to love. Rather than follow a court order to return the boy to his drug-addicted mother, the grandparents flee with him and assume new identities in a turbulent Southern town. With grace and insight, Morri's novel is a moving meditation about the power of faith and the meaning of home.
