Resumen del Editor

In The Kinship, a heartfelt coming-of-age novel, two estranged brothers, Dan and Bryce Bray, are forced to confront their shared past and uncertain futures when they find themselves grieving in their small, football-obsessed hometown after years of separation.

Dan Bray, the elder brother, left home abruptly after the tragic loss of their mother, leaving behind his younger sibling Bryce and their grieving father. His departure and unwillingness to return home strained the already fragile brotherly bond. Dan pursued his dreams and built a new life far away, leaving behind the quiet, football-crazed town where he and Bryce grew up.

Years later, the unexpected death of their father forces Dan to return to the place he'd long tried to forget. As he steps back into the familiar confines of their childhood home, he's confronted not only with grief but with the guilt of having abandoned his brother when he needed him the most.

Bryce, on the other hand, has remained in the town, tending to their father, and rewriting the record books as a football star. He's carved out a place for himself in the national spotlight, but he still bears the emotional scars of Dan's abandonment. With their father gone, Bryce struggles to cope with the loss and his unresolved feelings toward his older brother.

The Kinship is a poignant story of personal growth, forgiveness, and reconciliation, set against the backdrop of a rural America where football is more than just a sport; it's a way of life. As the brothers navigate their way through a myriad of obstacles and reconnect with their shared love for the game, they also rediscover the importance of family and the healing power of second chances. This coming-of-age novel beautifully captures the essence of family, forgiveness, and the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood, all against the backdrop of the great American pastime – football.
