A survival story in which a girl keeps her vow to take a mountainous, hazardous trek with the boy she blames for the injury that put her soldier brother in a coma * A romance born out of tragedy, against unlikely odds, with a deeper look at contemporary problems in military families.
Winner of the 2017 Colorado Book Award
After her soldier brother is horribly wounded in Afghanistan, Gabriela must honor the vow she made: If anything ever happened to him, she would walk the Camino de Santiago through Spain, making a pilgrimage in his name. The worst part is that the promise stipulates that she must travel with her brother's best friend--a boy she has despised all her life. Her brother is in a coma, and Gabi feels that she has no time to waste, but she is unsure. Will she hesitate too long, or risk her own happiness to keep a promise? An up-close look at the lives of the children of military families, Beneath Wandering Stars takes readers on a journey of love, danger, laughter, and friendship, against all odds.
