Boys Life Gone South

Boy's Life: Zephyr, Alabama, has been an idyllic home for eleven-year-old Cory Mackenson...a place where monsters swim in the belly of the river, and friends are forever. Then, one cold spring morning in 1964, Cory and his father see a car - ferrying haunting cargo - plunge deep into a lake. From that moment on, the shades of a boy's life deepen with the forces of good and evil, heartache, hope, and the promise of possibility in this masterpiece of magic and mystery.
Gone South: Flooded by memories and poisoned by Agent Orange, Dan Lambert kills a man in a moment of fear and fury - and it changes his life forever. Fleeing south toward the Louisiana bayous, he meets Arden Halliday, a young woman who bears the burdens of her own past and is seeking a faith healer called the Bright Girl. Together Dan and Arden set off on a journey of relentless suspense and impassioned discovery, traversing the dark, twisting depths of the human heart.
