Yeah, yeah. We know what you're thinking. 1974. Period piece. And, judging by the cover, a little happy-go-lucky kid's story. Didn't your teachers ever tell you not to judge a book by its cover? Okay, sure. It's a cheery tale . . . at times. And yeah, it's set in the early '70s. Kudos to you, Baker Street. Ya figured it all out! Except, of course, for the corpse buried in the neighbor's yard that the boys decided to dig up, UFO sightings, Bigfoot stories, a haunted portrait hidden deep in the attic, first kisses (gross, right?), AM radio contests, midnight horror movie marathons, suppositories that look suspiciously like candy, Marvel comics, walkie-talkies, baseball cards, a haunted forest, a bonafide Ouija board, tick-tacking (we'll assume you have no idea what that's about), a showdown with the town bully, and yes, bicycles with big, bright banana seats. Look at those silhouetted kids on the front cover. Cruising around on their bikes. Fun, right? Fun being nine. Got news for you, pal. It sucks being nine. Well, sometimes. Other times, yeah, it's freakin' awesome. Weren't you a kid once? But don't take our word for it, skip past the frontmatter (such a stupid word) and turn to Chapter 1. It's only eight pages. Correction . . . eight totally amazing, thrill-a-sentence pages. Do it. We all know you've got nothing better to do at this exact moment. And who knows? You might even learn a thing or two.

A 2021 Eric Hoffer Book Award Finalist! The debut novel from Mark Alan Polo! After a twenty-five-year absence, Faustus Madigan returns home to Greyhaven, a formerly illustrious 18th-century plantation in Peaceable, South Carolina, for a most unanticipated family reunion.Titus, father to The Madigans, is dead.Compelled to say goodbye to his father, visit with Addie-the woman who raised him-and mend the fences broken by his long absence, Faustus steps through the doors of the home he'd fled a quarter of a century ago.Nothing can prepare Faustus for the changes that have occurred in his family members following his departure from Peaceable, so many years earlier. Nor can he foresee the monumental shift in the family dynamic that has occurred because of Titus' death.During his brief visit, old acquaintances are rekindled, new bonds are formed, and long-buried family secrets are unearthed. Faustus' siblings, the heirs to Greyhaven, yearn to take hold of the reigns bequeathed them. They have plans of their own for Greyhaven's future and are determined that no one-family or otherwise-will stand in their way.There is always a price to pay for survival.
