Brianna Barnes is sixteen, intelligent, sensitive, and in love. Things should be perfect. Except the man who adores her is thirty-seven and her high school guidance counselor.
When the thrill of their illicit relationship comes crashing down, Brianna's counselor, Trent Reynolds, is thrown into prison and her life into turmoil. Learning to survive behind bars as a convicted sex-offender, Trent struggles to fathom how things went so wrong. Could it be linked to what a family friend did to him as a child? Or to his father's inexplicable brutality towards his only son? What comes next for Trent, his family, and his victim is completely unexpected.
Prison psychiatrist Edmond Thackery is hopeful that against tremendous odds, Trent can overcome a lifetime of lies, abuse, and self-deception. Outside, those closest to Trent try to escape their own prisons in the aftermath of what his actions bring to light.
A bold, gripping, and nuanced novel about the human capacity for deplorable acts, redemption, and transformation.
