Chris Baker is struggling to be a good son, boyfriend, and mechanic—struggling to lead an average life as a senior at Starling High. When the construction of the second runway at the Jones County Airport threatens to displace him and his dying mother Kathryn, his older brother Jake appears out of the past with a dangerous and illegal solution. But Jake, recently medically discharged from the Marines and battling his own inner demons, has a mysterious agenda. With the eviction imminent, and opposing forces more powerful than he could possibly imagine mounting against him, Chris must make a decision that will change both his life and the lives of those around him forever. Both heartbreaking and inspiring, Shadows Over Starling offers a multi-generational tale wrought with moral ambiguity that asks the reader: What would you do for love?
