Publisher's Synopsis
It is the summer twelve-year-old Brody Chiles will never forget---the summer a stranger shows up to the small, southern town of Kelters Way with a bulging knapsack and a face full of secrets. And Brody, desperately trying to escape his tumultuous life at home, is the first to befriend him ... and the first to discover the truth that will eventually turn the entire town on its head. Sometimes only the most traumatic circumstances can reveal the heart's most glorious mysteries. Sometimes the deepest longings of the soul can only emerge when all hope has been crushed. All it takes is the power of a good story and an even better glass of wine.
