A heartbreaking story, narrated by twelve-year-old Jack, whose family is caring for a broken teen called Joseph.
Joseph is misunderstood. He was incarcerated for trying to kill a teacher. Or so the rumours say. But Jack and his family see something others in town don’t want to. What's more, Joseph has a daughter he’s never seen. So the two boys go on a journey through the bitter Maine winter to help Joseph find his baby - no matter the cost.
Longlisted for the Carnegie Medal.
