LitPick Review
Hero's Tribute by Graham Garrison is a mystery. It is about a news reporter named Wes in a small town Talking Creek. He writes a sport page until one day he gets a message from his boss. It was a note from a local hero who was a sport legend at Talking Creek; he served in the army and got the biggest award possible the Medal of Honor, and ran a foster care retreat for young kids in Talking Creek. His name was Michael Gavin he had passed away a week ago from cancer. Michael wanted Wes to write his eulogy and to find everything about him, the good and the bad. Wes never met Michael and didn't know him at all. Then Wes decides to go off on his journey to uncover the truth about Michael Gavin. What good and bad will Wes find out Michael did? What will happen next? What will Wes uncover about Michael that no one knows?
Opinion:
Hero's Tribute kept me interested from the first page until the last. The characters were very believable and the story flows effortlessly from chapter to chapter as Wes discovers secrets about Michael's past. Although some of the chapters are slow, I still would recommend this book, especially to boys.
