Scorched
A gripping coming-of-age novel set to a killer soundtrack featuring Bowie, Zeppelin and Philadelphia R&B.
After his father dies suddenly and his family’s fortune takes a nosedive, fifteen-year-old Jonas Shore starts selling drugs to cool kids at his Philadelphia high school. When his hustle catches up with him, he’s sent off to a boarding school for fatherless boys.
At Lafayette Academy, Jonas and his roommates form a tight unit, vowing to have each other’s backs for life, but their bond is tested after a brush with death threatens to rob them of their futures.
Two decades later, Jonas is balancing a family and several successful businesses when one of his old pals shows up with ghosts from the past, threatening to destroy everything he’s built.
