Produktbeschreibung
Curiosity has caused Carson "Kit" Andrews to drive over twelve hundred miles from his home in Kemmerer, Wyoming, back to Kankakee, Illinois, for his tenth high school reunion-curiosity in the form of finding out what has become of his classmates and friends after ten years in the real world. When he arrives in Kankakee, he encounters his best friend from high school, Mike "Stoney" Stoneman, who has also returned for the reunion, but for a different reason. In high school, Stoney was a quiet, almost timid, skinny kid who hung out with Kit and several other friends who were not in the mainstream of high school society. One of those friends was a cute girl named Rae Huber. Stoney had a crush on Rae all through high school but never worked up the courage to tell her how he felt. Ten years later, when Stoney is an officer in army intelligence, he realizes she is the one for him, and he has come to seek her out and let her know the truth. Unfortunately, Rae doesn't show up. Stoney confesses his feelings for Rae to Kit, and they use the reunion to question everyone they could as to Rae's whereabouts. When they finally got a clue, Stoney's leave is almost up. Kit agrees to find Rae for his friend. With this simple promise, Kit begins a long, complicated journey full of twists and turns in what he thought would be a simple search for an old classmate. A simple task becomes both time-consuming and difficult, with more than a bit of danger tossed in.
