Summary
But Trouble comes careening down the road one night in the form of a pick-up truck that strikes Henry's older brother, Franklin.
In the truck is Chay Chouan, a young Cambodian from Franklin's preparatory school. The tragedy sparks racial tensions in the school - and in the town where Henry's family has lived for generations.
Caught between anger and grief, Henry does the only thing he feels he can: he sets off for Mt. Katahdin, which he and Franklin had planned to climb together. One July morning, he leaves for Maine with his best friend and the loveable stray, Black Dog, in tow. But when they encounter Chay Chouan on the road, fleeing demons of his own, Henry learns that turning a blind eye to Trouble only brings Trouble closer.
With moments of humor, tenderness, and remarkable strength, Henry and Chay travel a path to the mountain that neither of them expects.
Critic reviews
"Tautly constructed, metaphorically rich, emotionally gripping and seductively told." ( Publishers Weekly)
"A deeply moving and pleasurable read." ( Kirkus Reviews)
