Guitarist Eric Wieman has a lot to look forward to. He's won a trip to a famous music camp in San Francisco, jamming with the best guitarists in the country. Nothing could make this summer less than the best yet. He's not thinking about second chances, only how this first chance will bring him everything he's ever wanted as a musician. But Eric finds that a second chance for someone else may be more important to him than his own dreams. And he will have to call on reserves of courage he doesn't know he has to help them. Will he be up to the challenge?
