Neil Garvin is a seventeen year old living in a small town outside Las Vegas. Abandoned by his mother when he was three, he blames his abusive father - the local sheriff - for driving her away. Neil is a good-looking, popular, the quarterback of the high school football team - and is as cruel to his peers as is father is to him. He plans to get out of town on his million dollar arm, until the night he accidentally commits a terrible crime, and his father, unasked, covers up for him. |
