A boy’s search for truth becomes a man’s loss of innocence

Orphan Jack Smith is not sure who fathered him: the man who married his mother, or the man with whom she had an affair. In small-town Mississippi the whispers, the snickers, the implications… Jack has lived his sixteen years in quiet humiliation, haunted by an unrelenting psychological drama.

When a long-buried secret suggests that the man who raised him - his uncle - was involved in his father’s death and his mother’s disappearance, Jack’s fragile sense of identity is shattered. What remains is not the boy he was, but a man forged by lies, loss, and betrayal who must fight for his name.

Written in the intimate voice of a memoir, Remedy for Innocence offers a unique plot that follows Jack as he seeks the love of a woman, even as he uncovers the ugly truths of his birth. Author PD Wolfe masterfully captures the spirit of the era, weaving unique character interactions so vivid that they leap off the page like old friends. Infused with sharp, character-driven humor that sparkles on every page, Remedy for Innocence is an endearing work of Southern fiction that blends coming-of-age drama with the humor of an undisciplined teenager.

If you liked The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, To Kill a Mockingbird, and The Catcher in the Rye, you’ll enjoy Remedy for Innocence.
