When Father Gus molested Corky at age four, dad didn't have the guts to prosecute and his mentally ill mom ignored it. Corky found a safe place in his head and hid there. He barely survives the destruction of his childhood and lands in the psych ward right before high-school graduation. Corky's first act after discharge is to find the bastard who ruined his life.Through the anonymity of the confessional, Corky confesses, in grisly detail, molesting a little boy 15 years ago. The description is familiar--too familiar--to the priest on the other side of the grille.The penitent whispers that he has one more sin to reveal: Everything he just confessed is a lie. He didn’t do those things, but he knows who did.By the end of the night one of the two, penitent or pedophile, will be dead. A work of fiction culled from major life events, Alter Boys is the third book and first novel by Nebraska author Chuck Stepanek.
