Reborn fully conscious 5 years later as a boy named Keenan, he hides his identity while navigating the challenges of childhood in a dysfunctional Bay Area family. He befriends a homeless army veteran, Stoli, who becomes his ally after Keenan tells him where to find Kurt’s stash of drug money. After making a fresh start with the financial windfall, Stoli helps Keenan confront his killer at a Giants stadium suite. Keenan finally reveals his true identity, sparking a violent showdown. Part coming-of-age story, part crime novel, Imagine My Surprise! is a darkly comic meditation on childhood in the 21st century and the dangers of substance abuse.","brand":"Haddock, K.S.","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":53900279120155,"sku":"mon0000800097","price":19.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/4004\/3291\/files\/6021653482882.jpg?v=1788734530","url":"https:\/\/bookalley.com\/products\/imagine-my-surprise-a-novel","provider":"Book Alley","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
