The Honest Truth
Description
Twelve-year-old Mark is tired of living under the shadow of terminal cancer, and when hope feels out of reach, he chooses to chase one last, impossible dream: climbing Mount Rainier. Running away with his loyal dog, Beau, he pushes forward across more than two hundred miles, driven by determination and the fierce need to control his own story. Meanwhile, back home, Mark’s best friend Jessie is left to weigh loyalty against fear as she suspects where he’s gone and struggles with whether to intervene. Told through alternating perspectives, this emotionally charged novel explores courage, friendship, trust, and the complicated ways people protect one another when time is running out.
