Description

What if you had the power to do anything; the power to return life to the dead, make time slow or stop altogether? Imagine having unlimited strength, boundless knowledge encompassing even the future, and wisdom beyond possibility, but with all of this power there is a rule. One simple rule that binds you like the iron shackles that bind a prisoner to his ball and chain; you cannot change what is supposed to happen. You cannot change that the woman you love more than life itself must die. The year is 1945, and ten-year-old Benjamin Smalls is found alone outside the one and only grocery store in the small southern town of Hanley; the kind of place where nothing greatly memorable happens. Until his mysterious disappearance exactly fifteen years later, events transpire that no one will ever forget. As Ben falls in love with Hannah, the most beautiful girl in Hanley, their trials and losses, along with their adulterous affair, are remembered through a tale that in Hanley is told on front porches for generations. More than twenty years after Ben vanishes, another young boy, Jonathan Wendell, hears Ben's story for the first time from the town's resident storyteller and somehow feels a connection to it that he cannot explain. The more Jonathan learns of Ben the more he discovers of the ties that bind them both even though they are decades apart.
