The big deal in this small town is the high school's 100th anniversary celebration, attracting politicos, town-boosters, the hoi polloi, the wayward, and the sinister, too. Some come out of curiosity. Some for love. Others to stir trouble. And one to settle old scores.
All teem about the local baseball hero, state champion, and one-time teacher/coach, Finn Pyykonen, in his effort to right the grievous wrong visited on a junior catcher, unjustly imprisoned for a heinous crime a quarter century before.
The Advent of Elizabeth tells the story of righteousness, of love's longing, of mischief of the malicious kind, and the winding ways of the human heart.
Satire, angst, ego, and surprise draw the reader through the three-day reunion-fete and lives touched by secret. In this burg, it turns out, everyone has something to confess.
