The tiny town is a lazy place with only a picture show for entertainment and baseball on the radio. Of course, there are characters and as Jake finds, friends, the kind a boy never forgets. The story has the 3 young boys creating all the adventure they can in such a place in 1951.
A body has been found in the river, hooked by a fisherman and his son. Who is it and how did it get there? Suspicions abound. The story flows along in a lazy summer day kind of way, except for the hard work in the cotton fields, and the boys find fun when they can. Then POW!
