Artie Call can't get a break. Orphaned during the Great Depression, Artie finds himself leading a life of crime, stealing food, and hanging with the wrong people to survive. When his mischief lands him in juvenile court, a fellow church goer takes him in. But the trials and tribulations don't end there. After enduring unkind and unyielding treatment at home, Artie is sent back to juvenile hall. Down on his luck and with nowhere to go, Artie falls back into old patterns. Until Mary Wilkerson, a feisty widow, sees potential in Artie and takes him in. Ray McCandless, the wise yet firm chauffeur, teaches Artie about cars, life, and the connections between the two. Artie can choose to take advantage of this new opportunity to leave his past behind and work toward a hopeful future. But when cornered by old enemies, will he defend his honor with his life? Best-selling author Jerry Borrowman masterfully combines emotion, morality, suspense, and humor in this tender coming-of-age story. With the historically accurate backdrop of the Great Depression, Just One Last Chance is as page-turning and entertaining as it is insightful and uplifting. Join Artie on his adventure toward discovery of the value of integrity, the sweetness of family ties, and the reality of the American Dream. Get your copy today, and you will never forget the triumph that unfolds when a good boy with bad problems is given one last chance.
