The Outliers

More about the book

Set in a quiet waterfront town in Delaware at the turn of the last century, the story follows a lawman with a grim demeanor pursuing a charming rogue. Both men have recently disembarked from a steamship from New Jersey, and their presence unsettles a local Nanticoke Indian youth named Sonny, who wishes for their swift departure from Lewes. The narrative explores themes of tension and the impact of outsiders on a small community.
