Boy's Life is a 580-page novel by New York Times bestselling author Robert R. McCammon. The book is the tale of eleven-year-old Cory Mackenson who grows up in the magical town of Zephyr, Alabama, where magic and surprise are commonplace. The plot of the story starts out as Cory's father Tom, on his ordinary milkman route, watches a car drive straight into a deep lake and plunge down to the bottom with a passenger inside. He jumps into the lake in an attempt to save the driver of the car, and that is when the tale turns for the worst. The driver of this car has been the victim of murder. He is stripped naked, strangled with a copper wire, and handcuffed to the steering wheel. This vision and the realization that there is evil in the small town of Zephyr is enough to haunt Cory's father. An old woman called the Lady might be able to help Cory's father, but he won't go to her.
