About this ebook

Austin and Conner thought they knew what it meant to be brothers. Only seven and ten-years-old, they’ve already carried each other through losing their father. The worst of their lives was supposed to be over.
Then a confrontation with a bully goes horribly wrong. As Austin fights for his life, Conner must face his greatest fear: losing his brother. Meanwhile the bully responsible must deal with crippling grief and guilt of his own.
When Austin’s condition deteriorates, all three boys will see their childhoods threatened with a very adult darkness. In the face of the unthinkable, their choices could leave all of their young lives cut short.

Author

J.J. Francesco

For J.J. Francesco, the seeds of writing were planted with entering Reading Rainbow story contests as a young child. In the coming years, his writing often took unique forms – from making up his own Pokemon to imagining soap opera storylines in his head based off of anime characters. As a teenager, the writing moved to the page, starting with fanfiction, then serialized character dramas, and ultimately resulting in his first novels and short stories. “Mirror, Mirror,” was his first publication in the award-winning college literary magazine Limited Editions, with “Untitled Short Film” following in the next annual issue. Literary magazine Transient, published a third short story, “After School.” In 2014, J.J. published his debut novel, “Blood Chain,” through Rivershore Books. He also serves on the staff of the hit website, NewReleaseTuesday. J.J. lives in Philadelphia with his family.
