The extraordinary story of one man's mid-life attempt to remember the past, the dark and exotic summer of 1969 - a summer of love and rage, when everything seemed possible and the road held every charm.
Our secrets can come to define us. And sometimes, after lying asleep for a long spell, a secret can awake frantic and hungry.
Coop Henry's terrible secret needs attention. His missing brother haunts his life and he isn't holding up well under the strain. When his mother threatens to hire a detective in one last desperate attempt to discover what happened to his brother thirty years earlier, Coop's life begins to come unglued. Not even a glimmer of new love in his life can rescue him. It may be that only his missing brother holds the answers - and that possibility is devastating, to Coop and to nearly everyone in his life.
'The Smallest Color' is an extraordinary portrait of the dark and exotic summer of 1969 - a summer when everything seemed possible-and of brotherly love, loss and deliverance.
