Newman's Wave

By mr mike sullivan

People called him Newman. He was a fixture at the cliffs near Pleasure Point in Santa Cruz, California. He had mentored many young boys over the years, but none was more challenging than Danny Archer. Through surfing, Newman would try to help the twelve year old navigate through his adolescent years. But would the boy listen? Brushes with the law, problems at school, tension at home only added to Newman's challenge. Danny's mother Debbie hoped enrolling Danny in a private school would help. There Danny would meet the hippy priest, Father Mike, a prehistoric nun, Sister Agnes, and Kelly Rae, a yoga teacher. All three would have a profound effect on Danny and all three had a connection with Newman. It was at Burke Prep where Danny Archer would encounter the Collison brothers and the brothers swore to get their revenge. When he was accused of assaulting the brothers, Danny not only faced expulsion but jail time if the brother's wealthy father had his way. Could Newman really help this time? He promised Danny's family he would. No one ever know who Newman really was or where he came from. Years later, when Danny and his family and friends were called to an attorney's office, they would find out the real story behind the man they knew as Newman. No one could believe it, not Newman, not their Newman.
