Shadow Lessons by Tim Reardon
When high school English teacher Sean Cullinan comes across a specialty publisher looking for fresh African-American voices, he decides to submit his latest manuscript. One problem: Cully is white. Enter Janine Russell, black lieutenant in the San Francisco fire department and long-time friend of Cullinan. Together, they create a literary hoax that eventually fuels a national race debate. In Shadow Lessons new author Tim Reardon delves deep into the heart of the volatile American race conversation in a work that overflows with humor, honesty, and courage. Don't let Reardon's breezy style fool you. Underneath the humor and crackling dialogue is a well-crafted novel. It also just happens to be an off-beat examination of race in America. Don't let that fool you either. -Stephen McFeely, screenwriter, The Chronicles of Narnia

He lives in the Ashbury Heights neighborhood with his wife Gina and his three daughters: Kate, Claire, and Lizzy, and their border collie, Annie. PART OF THE GAME is his second novel.
