And if that wasn',t enough, he clashes with Anna',s macho boyfriend and her overbearing father. Along the way, Jason stumbles upon a deep, dark secret which shakes his understanding of the very definition of love and loyalty.áWhile Jason embarks on his Coney Island journey with childlike innocence, will he emerge victoriousáor battle weary in a complex adultáworld?á
