It is the mid-1970s and he believes his best days are behind him. He's lost his

her teenage son, Ricky, he has a chance to do things differently. As an unlikely
friendship develops with Ricky, Charlie is unwittingly pulled back into the

first he must help settle some old scores. Burning Down is a searing new novel
from acclaimed storyteller Venero Armanno about family, regret, love and the
promise of salvation.
