Hitting the Ground

George Ulleric returns to Burr Lake, Indiana after a ten-year estrangement to find his family and childhood friends struggling with illness and addiction. As he reflects on his past, and comes to grips with the present, George realizes that his childhood was not all that it seemed, the villains and heroes of his youth were not who they appeared to be, and that Alzheimer’s and heroin do not provide happy endings.
