Heavy Metal is a Sin (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798998773754)

When Elena's father dies under mysterious circumstances, she finds herself face to face with his only living relative; an uncle she has never met.

The eulogy he delivers detonates, tearing open a silence forged decades ago and left behind like a scorched shell. Off-script and unfiltered, he reopens wounds and heals others in the same breath.

Heavy Metal is a Sin begins in rural America's postwar factories, where Hollywood dreams and promiscuity collide with poverty and hard labor. It moves through homelessness and the crucible of the Vietnam war. In a world heavy with welding torches, religious fundamentalism, and moral doubt, sparks fly. Loyalties are tested. Dancing is the devil's work. The flames of loss burn hotter than any metal.

"An effective exploration of what it means to lose a loved one." - Kirkus Reviews
