Description

What would you sacrifice for family?

Jorie’s respectful life as “justa hairdresser” screeches to a halt when her eldest son, James, is accused of mowing down the mayor’s husband. It’s 1978 and the townsfolk are obsessed with James’ trial, convinced of his guilt. All they see is his pacing, counting, and obsession with a 200-mile bicycle tour he has no hope of riding. They don’t understand how he sees equations as colors, tastes emotions and smells sounds. But James has a secret, one he won’t tell, one worth going to jail for.

A handsome lawyer and a mysterious bicycle club come to the rescue as Jorie struggles to hold her family together through the courtroom drama. Numbers can’t always predict the result when secrets, lies and loyalty push the question of how far we will go to protect the ones we love.

Four and a Half Billion People
by Catherine Pomeroy
I LOVED this book. I felt all the hope and love and the past that affects children. James broke my heart, so much to give to help someone. I think, Jorie raised the boys, and they raised her to care. Beautiful written and will think again of this book. Thank you
