Storm Riders

"Storm Riders follows the challenges and tragedies of Clark Woods, a foster parent who is raising a Native American son, Wade. From the outset it is clear that Wade, born with fetal alcohol syndrome, is not only disabled but disturbed. Clark charts delicate territory in trying to both preserve his own new marriage and family and reconstruct a sense of heritage for Wade. Despite the strain, Clark will not abandon Wade as Clark's own father had abandoned him. Yet when Wade is implicated in a small girl's drowning near the campus of the University of Massachusetts, Clark wrestles with his own doubt, guilt, and responsibility." "Bringing to life the austere beauty of Wade's Tlingit Alaskan village, as well as highly educated pockets of the East Coast, Craig Lesley vividly portrays a father and a son struggling to come to terms with each other and endeavoring, above all, to come to terms with the truth."--BOOK JACKET.
