Description: "Leo Fisch is a young man with a brilliant future ahead of him. Bright and sociable, he's on the verge of moving in with his beautiful girlfriend Kathryn. Outwardly he seems happy. Then, when a sinister discovery is made in a forest near Leo's hometown, a figure from childhood re-enters his life. David Caldwell is tough and aggressive; the opposite of the company Leo now keeps. Unlikely friends, they are bound by a shared summer - and a shared secret - they'd promised to forget. As past and present begin to close in, Leo's comfortable life starts to unravel. Their terrible truth emerges and Leo must confront the awkward, fragile boy he once was, and the events of that summer which threaten to destroy them both."--Publisher description.
