For a curious boy like Jess Hall, growing up in Marshall means
trouble when you get caught spying on grown-ups. Adventurous and
precocious, Jess is protective of his older brother, Christopher, a
mute whom everyone calls Stump. Though their mother has warned them
not to snoop, Stump can't help sneaking a look at something he's
not supposed to--an act that will have repercussions. It's a
wrenching event that thrusts Jess into an adulthood for which he's
not prepared. He now knows that a new understanding can bring not
only danger and evil--but also the possibility of freedom and
deliverance.
Told by resonant and evocative characters, A Land More Kind Than
Home is a haunting tale of courage in the face of cruelty and the
power of love to overcome the darkness that lives in us all.
