Four characters burdened by the past intersect at a fading
resort town when County Sheriff David Caldwell is called in
to restore the order destroyed by the town bully, Cecil
Edwards-a giant of a man who operates the Ferris wheel.
Caldwell must also face the sorrow that has been his daily
companion when he reunites with his son, Todd, who has been
in prison for the accidental death of his brother. During
this reconciliation, Todd meets a mysterious young woman,
Lindsey, who is searching for her long-lost brother and
finds a love she never knew possible. With the intensity of a Shakespearean tragedy, these four
people are drawn into the gravitational pull of family.
Robert Bausch draws on the heartbreaking energy of families
in distress like no other writer, and Out of Season
resonates with the purity of redemption in the face of
irretrievable losses.
