Publisher's Synopsis
It's the summer of 1953, and the months before Christopher McClaren is set to go to Stanford are shaping up to be pretty boring. With his mother away in Europe and his brother fighting in Korea, Christopher passes his summer days working at his uncle's beverage distributor-until a group of classmates from the other side of town steal beer from his truck. After a confrontation lands the entire group, including Christopher, in jail, one question sits perched on everyone's lips.
Will the clean-cut Christopher risk losing his sterling future to have the best summer of his life?
