Tony Krane is a twelve year old in the 1950's  whose father is a part of the Italian Mafia. When his father uses him to kill a man, Tony turns the gun on his father...earning himself the title 'juvenile delinquent', and a good piece of jail time to go with it. 

Sheriff Joe Patton from Seabrooke Washington is there for the trial, and he believes that Tony is a good kid at heart who needs a second chance. Joe offers to the judge that instead of sending Tony to jail, he and his family will take Tony in and supervise him closely until he is eighteen. The judge allows it.

The road to redemption seems straightforward, until Tony realizes that the Pattons' are a Christian family, and he's going to have to change a lot about his life to fit in. Is this a chance at redemption? Or is it just another prison for a young preteen used to the wild ways of the Mafia? Find out, in 'Road to Redemption'. If you like this story, then you will LOVE the series 'Redemption at Echo Sound', available on Amazon Kindle as 'Redemption's Call', 'Redemption's Hand', and the final book in the trilogy releasing soon 'Redemption's Heart'.
