In Fourth of July Creek (Ecco Press), Smith Henderson explores the complexities of freedom, community, grace, suspicion, and anarchy, brilliantly depicting our nation's disquieting and violent contradictions. After trying to help Benjamin Pearl, an undernourished, nearly feral 11-year-old boy living in the Montana wilderness, social worker Pete Snow comes face to face with the boy's profoundly disturbed father. But as his own family spins out of control, Pete is put at the center of a massive manhunt from which no one will emerge unscathed.
