📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

A mentally challenged boy travels across America to save his sister from a supernatural threat.

The novel follows a young protagonist with cognitive differences who interprets his surroundings through a supernatural lens. He undertakes a dangerous cross-country trip to locate Dr. Ned, a television figure he trusts to heal his sister. Along the way, he encounters real-world peril in the form of a serial killer. The narrative explores how belief can drive action even when logic fails. Pratt uses this premise to examine the boundaries between mental illness and spiritual awareness. The story does not offer easy answers about the nature of reality. Instead, it focuses on the boy’s determination despite his limitations and the threats surrounding him.
