Five-year-old Tim Jacobson's life takes a sudden turn when he is
separated from his infant sister and is taken to live with his
aunt, uncle and two children. Deprived of love and comfort while
growing up, the boy feels alienated, always the outsider. Blessed
with athletic ability and nick-named the Omaha Kid, Tim turns to
sports as his salvation. While professional baseball and later
tennis become the backdrop of the story, like "Friday Night
Lights," "The Tennis Partner" and "The Art of Fielding" complex
characters and themes are found between the covers. The Adventures
of the Omaha Kid's odyssey takes him to a world of adventure,
romance and travel. Can he avoid the sirens' calls' to find love
and a place to call home. Danger lurks just over the next horizon.
