A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with intense sibling rivalry, especially when a family crisis or a parent's terminal illness has forced long-standing resentments to the surface. It is a vital resource for families needing to navigate the messy, non-linear path of forgiveness and the reality of saying goodbye to a loved one. The story follows two estranged brothers, Oscar and Vance, who are forced to confront their bitter past while their father is dying of cancer. It explores themes of grief, regret, and the high cost of holding onto anger. Given the raw emotional honesty and mature themes, it is best suited for older teens aged 14 to 18.
