Confessions Of A Liar, Thief And Failed Sex God
I have this annoying problem that gives me a lot of trouble: a conscience.
Neil Bridges attends a Catholic boys’ school in which teachers rule with iron fists and thick leather straps. Some crumble under the pressure but Neil toughs it out, just as his Vietnam-bound older brother has done before him. He has to be a man, after all. But at sixteen, how can he be sure of himself when he’s not sure of anything else?
He loses a friend and finds another, falls in love and unwittingly treads a path that leads to revenge and possibly murder . . .
