Born in a single-wide trailer in Appalachia to a teenage mother, Demon Copperhead enters the world with few advantages. Armed only with his dead father’s copper hair, sharp wit, and sheer determination, Demon navigates the harsh realities of foster care, child labor, addiction, and a broken education system.
As life tests him with devastating losses and fleeting victories, Demon confronts his own invisibility in a society that’s forgotten people like him. But survival is his greatest skill, and through every hardship, his voice remains unflinchingly honest.
In a world where even superheroes have abandoned him, can Demon rise above the struggles that have claimed so many around him—or will his roots keep him trapped?
A tale of resilience, loss, and the enduring power of story.
