From the outside looking in, thirteen year old Charlie Johnson is like a lot of kids his age. He has a best friend, a hard-working father, and is on his school's swim team. But that's where normal stops for Charlie. His mother has passed away, he battles to hide his compulsions, and his best and only friend Brian keeps getting Charlie in trouble. When Charlie and Brian are arrested, Charlie's dad is forced to send him to live with Charlie's Uncle Mark in a small town in Minnesota. In Cedar Bluff, Minnesota, Charlie learns the meaning of hard work and giving back to his community. But when Brian makes a surprise visit and a flash flood threatens to take away all that he has worked for, can Charlie finally make the choice to clean his hands?

Jon Steffes is an elementary teacher in LaCrescent, Minnesota. Growing up and living alongside the Mississippi River, he has always felt fortunate to have hunting and fishing opportunities just down the road. The beautiful valleys around LaCrescent, each with its own small river or creek, inspired Jon to base his first novel in a similar setting. Jon's next novel will be about the Armistice Day storm of 1940, which his father survived, and took the lives of many duck hunters in and near Winona, Minnesota.
