Intelligent, introspective, survival-savvy, fifteen-year-old Buck and his girlfriend, Harper, search for insight, courage, and meaning while their lives face life and death struggles in an unfair and difficult world. Although touching on issues such as abuse, homelessness, and mental health, the story is ultimately about Christian faith, wisdom, and finding order and meaning in the midst of chaos. Buck and Harper speak beyond their years, but that doesn't mean the thoughts exceed the thoughts of teens. Thus, it hopes to lend a voice. (In an effort to reflect reality, a few sentences contain mild profanity.) (Also, a teen study guide for youth groups is included.)
A compelling read for teenagers everywhere The author reveals remarkable insight into the teenage mind as he unfolds events that challenge Buck and Harper physically and emotionally. He cultivates the influence of a community of caretakers that participate in bringing hope to a young teenage man from a troubled home environment. Buck, like many teenagers, learns to look beyond his own needs and resources to the needs of others and Resources greater than himself. A tremendous option for teachers and young teen leaders; this book provides a backdrop for discussions on anger, hurt, guilt, loneliness, identity, attachments, and skills for transitioning into healthy adult living. Mary E. Oehlert, PhD, Psychologist
This work may be best suited for high school students. It could also be stimulating to those who work with youth or those interested in a career with youth. Although aimed at a slightly higher level than the author's first novel, the two do have common elements. One such element is the presence of an unlikely person of wisdom who lives in an unusual setting. For author presentations and appearances: tdshowalterauthor@gmail.com

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
