The Importance of Now

By Paul Schumacher

Book Overview

At 14, Shawn Stevens commits a horrible crime the day after his father's funeral. These two events define his life. After leaving juvenile detention, he starts life over but is haunted by his past, unable to forgive anybody, including himself. When Shawn becomes a mentor, he finally confronts what he's done, questioning everything.

In a parallel story from the present, Shawn's 13-year-old son, Aidan, finds letters in the attic introducing him to the father he never met. Aidan discovers the secrets his mom kept all these years and uncovers what drove his dad to finally forgive before it was too late.
