The Goldwyn County Candy Ban

Under an autocratic judge's candy ban, a group of boys discovers just how quickly mischief can turn criminal. By 1995, four years into Judge Emmanuel Meeks's decree, Goldwyn County has become a place where suspicion has become civic duty, neighbors have turned on one another, and even sugar can bring the law to your door. As an arrest draws national attention to Goldwyn County, a hidden stash of illegal candy near Richman's Pass draws Chat Kelley and his loyal friend Freddie into dangerous territory. What begins as a secret discovery quickly grows into something far larger when they fall in with the fearless Jimmy Sweetwater. With a legacy to protect, Jimmy has every intention of striking back after a brutal humiliation. But the candy has an owner, and his name carries weight throughout Goldwyn County: Zacharias Meeks, the judge's son. Suddenly, the boys are caught up in a conflict that leads straight back to the judge's own door. When fear, loyalty, and quiet surveillance shape daily life, what happens when buried contraband exposes the hypocrisy behind a moral crusade?
