A Sparrow in the Wind

By Janet L. Mantia

When fourteen year old Sammy faces the loss of his mother, his greatest struggle will be surviving the family who adopts him. Set in the 1970's in rural White Chapel, Pennsylvania, it is a simple time before cell phones, Twitter and Facebook. After settling into the home of his adoptive parents, who own a crematory and drive a hearse as their family car, the greatest challenge for Sammy will be his relationship with his father, Max. But when his adoptive father disappears, Sammy finds himself in the center of the drama, and becomes the prime suspect in his disappearance. As time passes, and Sammy comes of age, the secret the young man harbors, the secret he hides from the world, will cause his life to unravel. A Sparrow in the Wind affirms evil lurks close to home, and weaves a tale of a young man in search of himself.
