Since running away from home at the age of fifteen, Tyler has tried to stay one step ahead of his past. He makes two promises to Big Ralph, the mystical old man who became a second father. One is to bury his friend in Texas. The other is to return to his home in Kentucky and reconcile with his family, leaving behind a sordid life and enough loneliness to fill forty dozen country western songs.
