Search a Darker Sky. a Cleft Mind by Devik Schreiner
Gravity's victory was inevitable. My fingers were losing their grip, slowly sliding off a rusty section of rain gutter. I felt a strong hand wrap around my swollen ankle and begin to pull. I couldn't hold on anymore. In a span of 100 hours, 11-year-old Justin Tyme's world has been shattered. Still reeling from his father's unexplained disappearance and unsatisfied with the non-answers his mother has given him, he learns of his father's involvement with an elite team of engineers on the brink of developing a revolutionary new material, code-named C-Metal. With help from the school janitor, Justin unravels the clues to his father's disappearance, documenting his search in a mysterious, gold-edged journal his teacher gives him. As he searches for his dad, he copes with his mother's depression and struggles to protect his sister from their emotionally abusive stepfather. Search a Darker Sky is a rapid-fire psychological journey that propels Justin from boyhood to adolescence. I was blown away by the suspense in Search a Darker Sky.Truly an amazing story One to be read by millions.
--Justin Stanton, age 13 I couldn't put the book down. I felt I was part of the story.
I can hardly wait for the sequel
