The heart of Friday Night Lights meets the emotional
resonance and nostalgia of My So-Called Life in this moving
debut novel about tradition, family, love, and football. As the high school football coach in his small, rural
Maryland town, Dean is a hero who reorganized the athletic
program and brought the state championship to the community.
When he married Nicole, the beloved town sweetheart, he
seemed to have it all—until his troubled wife committed
suicide. Now, everything Dean thought he knew is thrown off
kilter as Nicole’s death forces him to re-evaluate all of
his relationships, including those with his team and his
three children. Dean’s eleven-year old son, Robbie, is withdrawing at home
and running away from school. Bry, who is only eight, is
struggling to understand his mother’s untimely death and his
place in the family. Eighteen-year-old Stephanie, a freshman
at Swarthmore, is torn between her new identity as a
rebellious and sophisticated college student, her
responsibility towards her brothers, and reeling from
missing her mother. As Dean struggles to continue to lead
his team to victory in light of his overwhelming personal
loss, he must fix his fractured family—and himself. When a new family emergency arises, Dean discovers that
he’ll never view the world in the same way again. Transporting readers to the heart of small town America,
Home Field is an unforgettable, poignant story about the
pull of the past and the power of forgiveness.
