Loss, most of us ha...Okay, I'll give it a try:<br /><br />Loss, most of us have experienced it at one time or another. But what about the loss of something you thought you never had, or for that matter convinced yourself you never wanted? That question propelled Anthony Mendoza across an ocean and into a dingy solicitor's office to deal with his estranged father's inheritance. Along the way he discovered a half-brother, a sense of community and how to deal with his inner demons. In a place that is Neither Here Nor There.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939951804632494408.post-20082124210908788672010-06-05T00:08:55.105-05:002010-06-05T00:08:55.105-05:00It makes me sad to see a contest with no entries.....It makes me sad to see a contest with no entries.... So here goes!<br /><br />Eleven-year-old Ray Browers disappeared at the beginning of the summer. None of the four boys knew him, yet what his fate may have been hangs over everything.<br /><br />Under the porch, digging for pennies, Vern overhears his older brother talking about the Brower kid and races to the tree house to tell his friends. It takes little to persuade the three of them - Gordie, Chris and Teddy – to lie to their parents and set off along the train tracks.<br /><br />The journey is not an easy one. The mad dog at the dump, a terrifying encounter with a train on a trestle bridge and leeches are just some of the hazards the four boys face. No horror though, is as great as the one that awaits them at the end of the Back Harlow road.<br /><br />And when the big kids show up, things turn downright ugly.<br /><br />Part auto-biography and part fact, The Body is a novella, complete at (insert number) words.Kate Larkindalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06202347563426692610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939951804632494408.post-63115741455678236572010-06-04T11:07:03.027-05:002010-06-04T11:07:03.027-05:00Sadly, I have nothing to query at this time.
