Award-winning author Robert Flynn delivers a witty and thought-provoking novel about a dying Texas town. When the new highway bypasses it, Wanderer Springs is left to wither in the dust. Will Callaghan, back home for a funeral, remembers the town's sometimes funny, sometimes painful past, including the time he cost his high school the football championship. Will's remembrances show that the present, however chaotic, is always linked to the past.
