A powerful story of redemption, grief, love, and perseverance. Colton Gentry has hit rock bottom. His best friend dies in a mass shooting, his rising country music career implodes (as does his marriage), and he is an alcoholic. After completing a stint in rehab, he returns to his childhood home in small town Kentucky to figure out what comes next.
In Colton Gentry's Third Act (2024), the current day story is sprinkled with flashbacks of his teenage years, lending emotional depth to his struggles. Jeff Zentner's first novel for adults is about putting in the hard work--to love yourself, to rebuild relationships, and to discover what you truly want in life. This gripping work features heartbreaking yet uplifting storytelling with characters who stay with you long after the book ends.
