The Good People of Coralville

Antoni Battista has spent his life in Chicago, shuffled from one foster home to another, and getting into more and more trouble as he grew older. However, after surviving a drive-by shooting--in which he is an innocent victim--Tony unexpectedly is given a chance at a new start. There's just one catch; he's sent to a very strict foster home in a small town. Tony is determined to stay out of trouble for the next few months when he will graduate and turn eighteen. However, a series of robberies begin just after his arrival in Coralville, making his foster parents suspicious. A murder at the school appears to be the final blow to Tony's second chance... until he, quite literally, runs into the sheriff... The Good People of Coralville is a three-part interwoven story (complete in one volume) about Tony's life in Coralville.
