When Joe Grace left his hometown to attain his law degree he thought he was living a bigger, better life. But when a past friend and the only man he has ever loved is accused of murder, Joe cannot get to him quick enough.

Israel Jones is accused of murdering the kid identified as killing his son, Teddy, for revenge. He did not commit the heinous crime they are accusing him of, but he has no way to prove it until Joe shows up—someone he thought to never see again. In poking around for answers, they happen onto some information that brings some heat.

Still, Life is an incredibly detailed story of two men separated by time who come together like time stood still. While they are relearning what they have missed in the last eighteen years of each others lives they believe in one another completely as they work together to piece together Teddy’s death and that of his killer. Still, Life had the unique content to pull at my heartstrings and inch me to the edge of my chair as I watched the men become closer and deal with harrowing events.
