Homer Hickam grew up in a West Virginia mining town. He wasn’t a miner, nor a football player, as was everyone else in the twon. He and his friends played with rockets. When he went away to study engineering, there was an accident at the mines. His father was being blamed for the death of man. Homer’s life was disrupted as he went home to try and help.

This story continues from October Sky in the story of Homer Hickam, but the book stands well on its own. We meet the characters, and understand some of the sociology of a small mining town and its issues.

The story is a mystery, unraveling the events leading to the death of one of the mining supervisors. Although, I don’t think the reader can solve the mystery himself, it is a good mystery, and an interesting anecdote in the life of Homer “Sonny” Hickam.
