This is his chance.
Recruited by a collegiate summer baseball team, Royce Thorne can finally break free from his dysfunctional past.
Every swing of the bat becomes an opportunity to strike at the terrors that lurk beneath the surface. When he steps into the light of the baseball diamond, the shadows of his shame disappear—until the game is over. Then they swirl around him like thick rain clouds before a doubleheader, threatening to ruin everything.
The ghost of his mother, the death of a teammate, the abuse of his father, and the impending outcome of an alleged cheating scandal bring him to a critical juncture in his young life.
Will he continue to spiral, or will he discover the power of forgiveness?
Sitting Dead Red is more than a baseball story. It’s a story of a redemptive life.
