Small Town Sins
Ken Jaworowski
It's not that everyone knows everyone else's business it's the secrets people try to hide.
Nathan is a small town Pennsylvania Volunteer Fireman who rescues a drug dealer from a fire and finds a bag filled with millions.
Callie is a nurse in a small hospital where a dying cancer victim in her teens is her sole patient.
Andrew is a recovering addict to heroin.
The first two cohabit, not sure how the third relates.
One gets the impression that these people are losers who suffer from their bad choices. Hard to believe anyone could compound so much bad luck. When major industries leave town things go from bad to worse for the people left in the lurch. Governments throw money at corporations to establish branch plants that close when recession hits. Corporations may have downturns but small towns have depression.
Half a trillion dollars was invested in bringing a battery plant to Ontario which is on hold because electric cars aren't selling. The money would have been better spent investing in residential charging stations so people would have reason to buy the things.
If you're looking for Happily Ever After this is not the book for you.
