From two-time Newbery Honor Award-winning author Bruce Brooks comes this profound and thought-provoking novel of one boy's exploration of religion and love, faith and rebellion. Fourteen-year-old Zimmerman feels misunderstood by friends and family alike--and the pressure to take a stand is building. Navigating a world charged with religious fervor, he struggles to find refuge within his own beliefs. In this multilayered, absorbing story, Brooks delves into the intense world of religion and examines what happens when faith is challenged.
