Shades of gray

At the end of the Civil War, twelve-year-old Will, having lost all his immediate family, reluctantly leaves his city home to live in the Virginia countryside with his aunt and the uncle he considers a "traitor" because he refused to take part in the war.

First sentence: Will sighed and tipped his hat so the brim shaded his eyes from the late afternoon sun.
