Bestselling author Robert Dugoni returns with an emotionally arresting follow-up to The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell.
In 1979, Vincent Bianco has just graduated high school. His only desire – collect a little beer money and enjoy his final summer before college. So he lands a job as a labourer on a construction crew. Working alongside two Vietnam vets, one suffering from PTSD, Vincent gets the education of a lifetime. Now 40 years later, with his own son leaving for college, the lessons of that summer – Vincent’s last taste of innocence and first taste of real life – dramatically unfold in a novel about breaking away, shaping a life and seeking one’s own destiny.
'A fearless and sensitive coming-of-age story. I loved it.'
Mark Sullivan, bestselling author of Beneath a Scarlet Sky
'Robert Dugoni has a rare and brilliant talent for infusing his characters with complex emotions.' (on The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell)
