Remember When Summer Lasted Forever?
It's 1995 in a quiet Southern county — a place where time drags, rules tighten, and candy has become contraband. Chat Kelley, eleven and restless, stumbles upon a red duffel bag hidden in the woods — a discovery that pulls him into a secret world of underground candy deals, shifting loyalties, and power that wears a friendly smile.
As his small town tilts toward something darker, Chat learns that growing up means finding a strength no one taught him.
