When Eddie was twelve years old, all he wanted for Christmas was a bike. He knew money had been tight since his father died, but Eddie dreamed that somehow his mother would find a way to afford that dream bike.
What he got from her instead was a sweater. “A stupid, handmade, ugly sweater” that young Eddie left in a crumpled ball in the corner of his room.
Scarred deeply by the fateful events that transpired that day Eddie begins a dark and painful journey on the road to manhood. It will take wrestling with himself, his faith, and his family – and the guidance of a mysterious neighbor named Russell – to help Eddie find his life’s path and finally understand the significance of that simple gift his mother had crafted with love.
