Produktinformationen zu „Bones of a Saint (ePub)“
Set in Northern California in the late '70s, this timeless coming-of-age story examines the nature of evil, the art of storytelling, and the possibility of redemption.
Fifteen-year-old RJ Armante has never known a life outside his dead-end hometown of Arcangel, CA. The Blackjacks still rule as they have for generations, luring the poorest kids into their monopoly on petty crime. For years, they've left RJ alone . . . until now.
When the Blackjacks come knocking, they want RJ to prey upon an old loner. But RJ is at his breaking point. It's not just about the gang who rules the town. It's about Charley, his younger brother, who is disabled. It's about Roxanne, the girl he can't reach. It's about the kids in his crew who have nothing to live for. If RJ is to resist, he must fight to free Arcangel of its past.

Autoren-Porträt von Grant Farley
Grant Farley worked as an English teacher for over twenty-five years and has taught at a Santa Monica alternative school, a barrio junior high, and a Marine Science magnet in San Pedro. All the while, he worked on Bones of a Saint, and excerpts of the book have appeared in various literary magazines and been showcased at a number of writers conferences. Then one day his awesome wife insisted that he retire, which is when RJ's story really took off. Now he writes full-time and volunteers at a lighthouse.
