Living at Trace

Brian Longfield's life has somehow gone in the wrong direction. His wife has died, and he wonders whether he will ever feel happy again. But life does go on, and in unexpected ways. Now he works as a campground host at a beautiful state park in Mississippi, and spends his time helping families at the campground.

But strange things happen at the park, too. Brian finds a small, hungry dog left behind by a family and takes him in. And that is not all the family left behind. The father dumped his oldest son, 14-year-old Tellman, in a nearby town without food or money. Together with Park Ranger Jack Madison, Brian tries to find Tellman's evil father, Dave Sykes, who still has Rio, Tellman's little brother. When Dave Sykes does return, something shocking happens.
