Curtis Edson, twelve, though looking forward to summer, is dealing with loneliness and worries about his mother. It is 1942 and World War II is raging. Living near Sebastian Inlet, in Florida, Curtis and his mother are experiencing the results of the war. They both miss his father who joined the Navy.
