In My Father's Shadow — Tony Shillitoe

Fifteen is a challenging age for a boy, and Joshua is coming to terms with his identity, his friendships, his sexuality and his faith, while he also deals with his parents' separation and his father's illness. A chance encounter on his uncle's farm with a stranger his own age starts Josh on a journey to unravel a dark family secret, a journey that opens the complex and sometimes tragic adult world into which he is growing.
