Synopsis: Socrates Fortlow has done
his time: twenty-seven years for murder and rape, acts forged by his
huge, rock-breaking hands. Now, he has come home to a new kind of
prison: two battered rooms in an abandoned building in Watts. Working
for the Bounty supermarket, and moving perilously close to
invisibility, it is Socrates who throws a lifeline to a drowning man:
young Darryl, whose shaky path is already bloodstained and fearsome.
In a place of violence and hopelessness, Socrates offers up his own
battle-scarred wisdom that can turn the world around.
