✦ Synopsis

Joel's rural life of
high school and farming in Common, New Mexico, is changed forever when
Tom comes to town. The son of a preacher, Tom reaches out to Joel in
friendship, and their bond to each other becomes as tight as brothers.
Joel's openness to his own feelings and acceptance of himself (a healthy
trait instilled by his loving parents) allows him to explore some new
and confusing feelings he has for Tom. His confusion clears, however,
after a reckless drinking bout ends with a very public kiss from Tom.
But Tom's torment of sin and self-incrimination are far from over.
Common Sons, the first in a series entitled "Common Threads in the
Life," is a moving tale of self-discovery, love, and finding the courage
to come out and come to grips with the truth in the face of hatred and
adversity.
