Downstream

Adam has a violent personality, and for good reason: as a boy, he saw things no child should see, suffered cuts that pierced his heart and wounded his soul. The passing of the years has made him hypersensitive and left him feeling misunderstood. The final blow is an unjust murder charge, of which he is acquitted, but which drives him from his home and family. Exiled for a sin he didn't commit, Adam disappears for five long years, blending into the dull grayness of New York City. Now, back in his hometown, he demands answers and suffers the reactions of those he left behind, until an even more dramatic event forces him to fight for himself and those he loves. Award-winning author John Hart doesn't shy away from rawly exposing his characters. Secrets erupt, emotions surface, and the line between loyalty and fear becomes fluid and blurred. A gritty, heart-racing romance, DOWN THE RIVER will linger in your thoughts long after you've finished the last page.
