Good grief, Wes!
That sounds like one of THOSE stories, especially after the brief scene with Cody in "Starting Late". What a thing to dump on a high school student!
Looking forward to it, will order when I get home tonight (don't like to do so from work). Looks like it will be another strong candidate for the Wes Boyd new novel rule - "NO reading after mid night"
