Mike just wants space from school, from his friends, and from the fear hanging over his home. Instead, he gets Tom.
Tom is brilliant, literal, and completely convinced that aliens abducted his mother. When the boys discover a deep, perfectly round hole in the woods, Tom knows it’s proof. Mike knows it’s trouble.
But when they fall in and are in need of rescue, what begins as a strange summer mystery becomes something much bigger. As Tom searches for answers in the sky, Mike must face the truth closer to home.
Warm, funny, and deeply moving, The Hole is a story about friendship, imagination, and the lesson that some spaces can’t be filled; only shared.
