Blue Sky World

Blue Sky World is an exciting story of four friends who part company as they leave high school, vowing to return and reunite on a regular basis to keep their friendship for each other as strong as it has been for all of their short lives. They quickly learn the hard truth that 'life' is what happens to them while they're making other plans and that 'life' is, after all, about how well they can adapt to 'Plan B.'Each member of the quartet finds success in life, whether it comes quickly and fades, or if it's earned by merit through determination and effort, of if they quite simply fall into it in a haphazard, almost accidental manner. Their adventures span four decades without the hoped for reunion occurring even once. When the youngest member of the group stumbles upon a drug smuggling and human trafficking ring, his discovery proves to have consequences that summon the other members of the group back home; albeit not for the happy get together they had planned as teenagers.Blue Sky World brings to the reader much more than an exciting story. Set in south Georgia, Blue Sky World presents the distinct cultural milieu that is the Deep South: the courtesies, the civility, the rituals, along with the passions, the greed, and quest for power that accompanies human beings wherever they go. For readers who have never had the opportunity to experience this culture, Blue Sky World offers, not just a taste to be sampled, but a good, old-fashioned, all you can eat buffet. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy this book, one of author Clay Mercer's finest!
