got this book from a friend, It was written by a local lawyer amp set in the town I live in Clarksburg, WV.
It's a coming of age story with a mystery woven into it, I didn't care for some of the language for a book that seemed to be written for high school student level readers.
It was interesting to read a book though set in the town I live in, Eleven year old Sunny Gifford wanted to learn about "fighting", "cussing", "smoking", "drinking", "girls", and "sex", in just that order.
His cousins Jimmy and Bobby Dennison told him not to get things out of order if he wanted to grow up smart.
The Dennison boys
were looking for a relative to take them in after their mother was killed by a hit and run drunk driver.
Things changed for everyone when eleven year old Eileen, the daughter of an army recruiter, moves with her parents to Clarksburg, West Virginia.
She starts falling in love with Sunny and learns from him what it is like to have roots.
His were so deep she suspected they grew all the way to china, She organized the Dennison and Gifford kids on their own search to find the killer of Mrs.
Dennison only to learn the end results is not as important as what you find along the way in the form of love, roots and the meaning of family.
When she was fifteen her father is transferred and her mother keeps her from contacting Sunny to tell him where they moved, believing it would be in her daughters best interest to leave the past behind so she could start anew at her new home.
At twenty two, Sunny sets out to find Eileen, the girl of his dreams, Is there such a thing as your first girlfriend being your soul mate for life He can't forget Eileen, but has she forgotten him.
