His dog Superman is a wise-cracking mutt with attitude, his mom is a working single mother, his frail grandfather keeps a secret in their garage, his bossy teenage sister is in love with an armed hoodlum, and the local detective has designs on his mother. What could go wrong That fall season, at dusk, while in the woods with Superman, Nate stumbles upon a corpse, and only his mother believes him.
