Publisher's Synopsis
It's 1945 and the story of one family's war is about to begin. From the calm fields of Sweet Water, Alabama and the hell of Okinawa to the dawn of a nuclear age and its awful potential, Solly, Silace and Sky George bear witness to the brutality of war and the unleashing of a new and terrible weapon. The family upbringing of love and friendship bonds them tightly together but will it be enough on the long and uncertain road ahead.
