   I am currently in the middle of chapter six in my novel, "The Hand You're Dealt" by Paul Volponi. Some new characters that have recently been introduced in this book is Rooster, And Audra. Rooster was mentioned in the prologue of the story but they didn't really discuss who he was until about chapter four or five. Rooster I don't believe plays a very big part in this story but he is a character that is mentioned frequently. He is the mechanic of Caldwell and is described as "cut up" with tattoos. Audra is the girl Huck likes, and she is also frequently mentioned. On another note, the book goes back a couple of months in Huck's life to a parent teacher conference they had, and it describes the scene of when Huck's mom went into Mr. Abbott's class and started screaming at him and sarcastically asking him to check the time on his watch because he stole Huck's father's watch when Huck's father was unconscious in a hospital bed.
