This book centers around two boys who were molested by their baseball coach as kids and grew up with different views on that experience. Brian has no recolection of the experience and can only remember waking up under the crawl space of his house with no memory from the last 5 hours. As he ages he slowly recalls moments from that night but not enough to remember the entire thing. For years he believes that he is the victim of an alien encounter. That is until he meets the other boy, Neil.
Neil enjoyed the experience and thought of it as receiving guidance from his coach. He grows into a reckless teenage hustler. Strutting around for older men with no worries about the dangers he could face. It's not until he meets his former teammate when he reliazes what was really happening.
Fantastic plot, Heim is a great writer.
