Fine in Very Good jacket. Book Octavo, hardcover, fine in near fine b & w pictorial dj. Coming of age in Mississippi. 297 pages. After graduation from a New England prep school, Fletcher Greel, the judge's son, returns home and falls in love with Haley Banks, while his best friend, Riley, becomes enamored with a blues-singing black girl named Crystal, and as these four lives become connected by romance, passion, and the new-found freedoms of late adolescence, racial tensions and violence threaten to destroy them all forever. Teenaged Haley Ellyson, growing up in a Southern town, is adored by her boyfriend Fletcher, but she is also pursued by a much older horse trainer, named Bo, with whom Haley shares a terrible secret involving a murder. After a summer of booze and sex, the facts catch up with Bo, and with Haley, who also has to cope with her father's problems with alcohol and his girlfriend's miscarriage.
