Larry Cameron is a veteran survivor of hazard zone. As a native of Raysburg Island, West Virginia, a flood plain development on the Ohio River, he grew up on one; as a geography student who never finished his thesis on those same hazard zones, he became even more intimately acquainted with them; and now, in the throes of mid-life, Larry Cameron is about to face another hazard zone - the unfinished business of his past.Hazard Zones is the second novel in Keith Maillard's Raysburg series that began with the highly acclaimed historical novel, Light in the Company of Women.Hazard Zones is set in contemporary Raysburg, seamlessly moving from the present back to the 1950s, as Larry grows from a young boy with an alcoholic stepfather and wild stepbrother to a man who must come to terms with his own personal history, a past inexorably intertwined with the history of a place he finally realizes is his one true home.
