Four-year-old Sam is snatched violently from his home and transported thousands of miles to Utah where he becomes the second son in a family of stolen boys belonging to sheriff Elliott Vickers and his pretentious wife, Delilah.Sheriff Vickers is an exemplary citizen and a respected father in the community, but while the people of Price put their trust in him, behind closed doors Sam and the others learn about the real man behind the badge as they endure unspeakable acts of abuse. When a toddler named Ricky arrives at the ranch and proves to be too much for Delilah to handle, the sheriff intervenes. Together with his brother, Sam witnesses just how far Vickers will go to keep his secrets safe. Now they must keep to themselves the horrifying truth about what really happened to Ricky.When Sam stumbles upon a large sum of money lost to someone long ago, he knows fate has finally shined her light and given them a way out. Desperate to stay a step ahead of a madman who has the law tucked safely in his pocket, the three young brothers face impossible odds as they search for parents who’ve long presumed them dead. The Second Son is a story about a little boy held captive whose love and concern for the poor in spirit is his greatest gift, and about parents in the terrifying grip of their worst nightmare made real. Sam’s tale is one of courage and hope, of prevailing truth, and personal honor.
