Colorado rancher Atticus Cody receives word that his wayward younger son, Scott, has committed suicide in Resurreccion, Mexico. When Atticus travels south to recover Scott's body, he is puzzled by what he finds there and begins to suspect murder.
Illuminating those often obscure chambers of the human heart, 'Atticus' is the story of a father's steadfast and almost unfathomable love for his son, a mystery that Ron Hansen's fiction explores with passion and intensity.
