Some things are best left forgotten. A gripping account of espionage
and loyalty from National Book Award Finalist Chris Lynch.
All Daniel wants to do is spend one last summer with his grandfather
before he moves away for college and his grandfather's dementia pulls
them apart. But when his dear old Da starts to let things slip about the
job he used to hold--people he's killed, countries he's overthrown--old
work "friends" show up to make sure he stays quiet. Was his grandfather
really involved in a world of assassinations and coups, or are the
stories just delusions of a crumbling mind? On the run from the police
(and possibly something worse) before he has time to find out, Daniel
may have to sacrifice everything to protect his grandfather from those
who would do him harm.
