But on that Sunday, a simple act of giving a ride to the town's star half-back changes all that and capsizes his life and that of everyone he cares about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e A young girl is raped, and the town of Banning is quick to lay blame. Many in the community and school are reluctant to blame their star football player, who has led the school to two consecutive regional titles. A farm boy from a family with little influence and a spotted reputation is an easier target.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDanny struggles to restore his and his family's reputation in the face of betrayal from those he has known all his life. He finds no safe haven at Banning High, where he is no longer wanted. Still, he finds strength and courage with another outcast, Wendy Warner, as he faces violence and the town's unforgiving prejudice. The Outcast is a story of redemption, retribution, love, and friendship in rural America during the 1960s. This narrative will linger with readers long after they have finished the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the small rural town of Banning, Iowa, little is forgiven, and nothing is forgotten; reputation is everything, and just because you have known someone all your life does not mean they are your friend.
