Wharf Rats

Everybody in Widow's Point knows the Wharf Rats. Sam, Max and Blinker have been fixtures at ball games and barbecues, graduations and block parties. They have tended to the needs of their families and done the best they could. But the cannery, the town's main employer, has laid them off. Out of work and with no plan for their futures, they are now faced with the question they have never had to confront: what's next?
This funny and touching novel follows the boys as they stumble through putting their lives back together, confronting demons from the past, and try to embrace a future that is both frightening and filled with promise.
