""You done lived a tough life, boy, and I know I'm part responsible
for that. I ain't askin' you to excuse me or forgive me. Just know
I did the best I knew to do. I was just tryin' to make you tough
enough to deal with the world. To stand tall among men, I knew you
had to be strong and have yo' own mind."
"You were preparing me for war, Grandfather." "
Guy Johnson, the author of the critically acclaimed debut
"Standing at the Scratch Line," continues the Tremain family
saga.
Jackson St. Clair Tremain hasn't spoken to his grandfather King in
nearly twenty years. Disgusted by the violence and bloodlust that
seemed to be his grandfather's way of life, Jackson chose to
distance himself from King and live a simpler life. But now King is
gravely ill, and his impending death places Jackson's life--as well
as those of his family and friends--in jeopardy. Reluctantly,
Jackson travels to Mexico to see King. But after a brief
reconciliation, his grandfather is assassinated, and Jackson
suspects that his grandmother Serena may have had a hand in it.
Jackson takes control of King's organization, and as he does, he
reflects on the summers he spent in Mexico as a child and the
lessons he learned there at the knee of his strong-willed, complex
grandfather.
In "Echoes of a Distant Summer," Guy Johnson introduces us to a new
hero, Jackson St. Clair Tremain, who learns that, like his
grandfather, he must be willing to protect those he loves--at all
costs.
