Heroes By Robert Cormier



Meet Francis Joseph a World War two solider, just returning home from war. Family and friends think they are welcoming back a war hero, but Francis knows the truth. Losing half of his face in a grenade explosion, he seeks out a childhood hero not to talk about childhood memories... but for revenge.
We follow our anti-hero as he stays in a rat infested hotel, hangs out with his friends that think he is a hero, and feels as if he is a spy walking the streets. Why does this hero deserve to be killed? What secrets does Francis carry with him?
