At thirty years old, he lives at home with his elderly mother and his beloved blind and deaf Saint Bernard, George. He cleans up roadkill to help pay the bills. Though his prospects are limited by a developmental delay―the result of an accident at birth―Denny has always felt that he has “a good life.”\nSo how did he wind up being charged with the murder of a mayoral candidate―after crashing a sled full of guns into a tree?\nAs Denny awaits trial, his court-appointed therapist walks him through the events of the past year. Denny’s had other scuffles with the law, the first for kidnapping a neighbor’s cantankerous goose. And then there was the time he accidentally assisted in a bank robbery. It seems like whenever Denny tries to do the right thing, chaos ensues.\nUntangling the events around the murder reveals even more painful truths about his family’s past. He’s always been surrounded by people who love him, but now it’s up to Denny to set his life on a new course.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1662525923\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1662525923.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Kennedy, Holly\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
