Noah is an 8th grader whose life feels like it has fallen apart. His older brother, Jaime, has run away to Halifax, and it has torn his family apart. When Noah learns that the prize for an upcoming swimming competition is a trip to Halifax, he is sure that if he wins, he will be able to find his brother and bring him home.
This is fairly long for an Orca book. The plot is predictable, but kept me hooked. A good read for anyone who is experiencing family conflict or friendship issues. Danger: after reading this, you will want chocolate cake for breakfast. Culture or race isn't specified, but the characters live in Canada.
