內容註 ： "On its surface, life in 1950s Houston is as you would expect: drive-in restaurants, souped-up cars, jukeboxes, teenagers discovering their sexuality. But beneath the glitz and superficial normalcy, a class war has begun, and it is nothing like the conventional portrayal of the decade. Against this backdrop, Aaron Holland Broussard suddenly discovers a world of violence he did not know existed. When he spots the beautiful and gifted Valerie Epstein fighting with her boyfriend, Grady Harrelson, at a Galveston drive-in, Aaron inadvertently challenges the power of the Mob and one of the richest families in Texas--a sudden, brutal test that leads him to find the courage his father had possessed asan American soldier during the Great War. And as Aaron undergoes his harrowing evolution from boy to man, he experiences the inspirational and curative power of first love...and how far he's willing to go in order to protect it." -- Page [4] cover.
