Eden Sings

A dare sends Bucky Bliss to the top of Iron Mountain for a night, where a mysterious encounter fulfills his lifelong dream. There's a hitch, though, and Bucky soon finds himself on an uphill climb when he has to fulfill a promise to protect the Eden-like environs of Iron Mountain, the highest point in Florida. Among the swanky winter residents of Lake Wales is the famous editor and Pulitzer Prize winner from Philadelphia, Edward Bok. His vision of a "Singing Tower" will help Bucky keep his promise. Until then, this coming-of-age tale steers the seventeen-year-old into some peculiar predicaments in this historically inspired story set in 1927, towards the end of the Florida land boom.
