A story of a self-lost... A self-loathed... And a self-rediscovered. In Haddleboro North Carolina Scout Webb is a 14-year-old kind spirited small-town southern girl and a tomboy much like her namesake the young narrator from her mother’s favorite book. With both her name and her Christian faith deeply woven into the fabric of her identity Scout always felt like she had a lot to live up to - she was the kind of girl who made her parents proud. It's August 1983 and Scout is playing on a summer baseball team with Charlie Porter her best friend since kindergarten. More than anything she is looking forward to her last few weeks at Camp Judah a Christian camp near the Catawba River. She can’t wait to see her big crush “Brother Doug ” the thirty-two-year-old camp lifeguard who has watched her grow up each summer since she was seven years old. But after a fateful few days and one catastrophic event during her last day at the camp Scout will be changed forever.
