Thirteen year old Eddie Delaney loves his dad. But sometimes he wishes that
he'd lighten up. His father, a lawyer who grew up during the civil rights
movement expects nothing but the best from his only son. And with Eddie's
success as a starter on the basketball team, and his good grades, Mr. Delaney's
been getting it. Then Eddie brings home a D in language arts and everything
changes. His parents make him quit the team. And now Eddie's lost the one thing
he knows he's good at, the very thing that had helped bring him and his dad
together. Why is his dad so hard on him? Eddie's friends decide to find out.
But when they dig into Mr. Delaney's past they uncover a secret that rocks the
foundation of the already unsteady father-son relationship, and changes Eddie's
life forever.
