A land more kind than home / Wiley Cash.

Cash, Wiley, (author.).

Summary:

For a curious boy like Jess Hall, growing up in Marshall means trouble when your mother catches you spying on grown-ups. Adventurous and precocious, Jess is enormously protective of his older brother, Christopher, a mute everyone called Stump. Though their mother has warned them not to snoop, Stump can't help sneaking a look at something he's not supposed to--an act that has catastrophic repercussions, shattering both his world and Jess's. It's a wrenching event that thrusts Jess into an adulthood for which he is not prepared. While there is much about the world that still confuses him, he now knows that a new understanding can bring not only a growing danger and evil--but also the possibility of freedom and deliverance as well. -- Provided by publisher.
