Description
Fifteen-year-old Dell Parsons' life is irrevocably altered when his parents are arrested for bank robbery, leaving him in the care of Arthur Remlinger. Unbeknownst to Dell, Remlinger harbors a dangerous and violent secret that will soon shatter the fragile peace Dell seeks. As Dell navigates this new, precarious reality, he embarks on a journey across the vast Saskatchewan prairie, searching for solace and a sense of belonging amidst growing darkness. This novel masterfully explores themes of innocence lost, the search for identity, and the unexpected places where grace can be found, even in the shadow of profound moral ambiguity.
