Thame, United Kingdom, September 04, 2017 --(PR.com)-- About Pride be Damned
Fifteen-year-old Toby Garrison continues to blame himself for his mother's death a few months ago. Now, after forcing Toby to move with him from New York City to his small hometown of Misty Falls, his father disappears.

Quentin Ballard, the pompous town sheriff, has a history with Toby’s dad and refuses to conduct a real investigation, insisting that he’s just on a ‘weekend bender’ and will return in a few days with his tail between his legs.

Just hours after reporting the disappearance to Ballard, resident thugs—Theo and Nate—break into the Garrison house in the middle of the night. They beat Toby, threatening that if he doesn’t give them ‘the pictures’, the next beating will be far worse. But he has no idea what pictures they’re talking about.

Toby now lives in constant fear and round-the-clock vigilance. By day, he asks around town about his dad; by night, he barricades himself in his bedroom, too afraid to sleep. Ten days later, the cupboards are bare and Stephen Garrison is still missing.

Who can Toby trust in this tangled web of conspiracy?
