When 12 yr. old Toby arrives at Gramps and Grams for the summer up north, he realizes something isn't right. Because of a fall and resulting injury, Gramps is not the person he used to be.
Toby decides that he has the answer to help Gramps get back to his old self, save what is left of the summer gone wrong and get some serious fishing in before it is over. With the help of Cal, his friend from the resort next door, and Stealth the black cat with gold, starburst eyes, he finds his idea becomes more of an adventure than an answer.
Never did Toby imagine that by summer's end he would be touching a loon, scaring off a coyote and . . . saving Gramps. Follow along with Toby in this coming-of-age story as he gains insight on life, acceptance and unconditional love.
