Ten-year-old Kendall’s life isn’t just unpredictable; everything about it is a mystery. Why can’t he and Dad live in one place more than a few months? Why all the frantic all-night drives, the tucked-away motels, always being forced to leave his few possessions behind? Does Dad really work for the FBI, meeting with men who look like gangsters, or is the truth actually too terrible to imagine? Kendall only knows two things for sure: He’s filled with constant fear—and Dad despises cowards. After one, seemingly insignificant act—saving a shivering puppy—Kendall suddenly is confronted with a series of terrifying events that force him to summon courage he never knew he had. If you’ve ever felt afraid or helpless, follow Kendall’s harrowing journey as he discovers the greatest truth of all: that love—even from a puppy—can change everything.
