From the critically acclaimed author of A Very Simple
Crime, a chilling story of a young boy coming to grips with genuine
evil. A red dirt road on a sweltering day. A car loses control, flips
through the air. A woman crawls out, bloody and battered, staggers
toward the boy on the bike, the one she swerved to avoid. But he runs
away... Kyle is ten in the summer of 1976, and his world is all about
secrets-secrets hidden in the maze of cornfields, in caves, in the
embers of scorched earth, behind creaking doors and down basement
stairs...and in the darkest of hearts. But there's a policewoman at the front door. The Paralyzed Man
watches him from a neighboring porch. And no matter which way Kyle
turns, no place seems safe anymore...
