The Fatherless Child

By Anthony Mckinney

Spud is a young boy who lives with his family in rural Mississippi where life should be carefree. He witnesses domestic violence and becomes a victim of sexual abuse all in one year. For Spud, life is anything but simple. Fortunately, he finds refuge in a young girl named Santorica. Soon after they fall in love, a life changing event has the potential to separate the two love birds, and change Spud's life drastically.

Will Spud's life experiences steal his innocence, leaving him jaded and alone? Or will he take the negative aspects of life and use them to his advantage? See how Spud lives and learns in a small town where nothing is forgotten and very little is ever forgiven.
