An orphaned boy raised by a survivalist wends his way into the real world in an emotional novel about hope, fears, and found family by New York Times bestselling author Catherine Ryan Hyde.
As Remy\'s journey into the real world begins, figuring out how to navigate it becomes a path they will have to learn to walk together..
But to do so, they must first reexamine how much they trust the world themselves, and how much they should.
As Remy cautiously adapts to his new foster home, his family wants nothing more than to reassure him that he can trust the world.
Just a challenging one.
To Anne, a nurturing mother of two adopted teenagers who\'s still dealing with her own childhood rejections, Remy is not a lost cause.
He is found--near feral, silent, and terrified--in the small rural town of Blaire.
As seasons pass, supplies run out, and fending for himself grows more desperate, Remy sets out on foot, unprepared for the great unknown of civilization.
Raised off the grid in the middle of nowhere, his own survival skills not yet honed, Remy is days shy of his eighth birthday when his father unexpectedly dies.
That\'s what Remy Blake has been taught by his survivalist father.
All that matters is freedom.
Out there is chaos, the collapse of society, and so much to be afraid of.
