About the Book

In 1998 Atlantic City was THE place to go on the East Coast. The city that had once been a faded seaside resort had been transformed into a vibrant gambling and entertainment Mecca. It was a lavish destination for anyone who had money and affluence. But for Timmy Davenport it was still nowhere. It was home. It never changed. And he hated it. Basketball had been his ticket out of Atlantic City, and despite addictions and self-destructive behavior, Timmy was labeled a "can't miss" player by everyone who ever saw him play. Things at college don't work out the way he had planned. After a disastrous sophomore year that jeopardizes his career, Timmy is forced to confront every fear he ever had during a turbulent summer in the city where he grew up. In a world filled with alcohol, addicts, sex, and violence, Timmy takes an emotional journey through the seedy downtown streets into the uptown neighborhoods where everyone wants more than what they have. It is a ride into a world of playground basketball, drug addicts, misfits, mobsters, friends who have disappeared, and parents who don't understand him. Haunted by a past littered with poor choices and his own addictions, Timmy tries piecing his life back together. He searches for the love of a game that was once his salvation and along the way finds the love of a girl who just might be the key to his happiness. But as he prepares for a basketball tournament that can define his future, Timmy is forced to confront the ghosts of his past. Intense, insightful, and emotionally raw, LOST EXIT blends the pain and angst of youth with the struggle of characters coming to grips with their own identities. More than a coming of age novel or a sports book, LOST EXIT is a story about a young man trying to find himself in spite of his own lingering fears and scars that never fade. LOST EXIT is about last chance opportunities.
