Description
Twelve-year-old Lowen Grover is still reeling from the shooting death of his friend Abe when he stumbles across an article about a former mill town giving away homes for just one dollar. This seems like the perfect escape from the city and all its painful memories, but also presents an opportunity for his mum to run her own business. However, the reality is that the homes are in poor condition, and the locals are less than welcoming. As Lowen navigates this new community, he must confront guilt and grief, as well as the challenges of building a new family life. With its focus on community, friendship, and the complexities of human relationships, this novel explores themes that will resonate with readers. From Jennifer Richard Jacobson comes a heart-wrenching story about finding a new sense of home and belonging in unexpected places.
