Two pre-teens, Janelle and Nicole, meet at a summer retreat, only to discover the room they share, along with two of Janelle’s friends, has been ransacked. Eager to know who committed the vandalism, Janelle sets out to find the culprit, having already formed an opinion as to the guilty party. As if this weren’t enough of a distraction, the two girls quickly learn the camp caretaker’s pet has disappeared, much to his distress. Janelle, along with Nicole, promise the nice man they will search for his small monkey and return it to him. In the meantime, and to each other’s surprise, they discover each other has a chronic illness, something they both sense is unacceptable to the 'normal' kids at camp. Feeling like outcasts amongst their peers, they decide to form a friendship club for sick and disabled children, something Mrs. Brock, the retreat nurse, who loves both girls dearly, has her doubts about at first. The girls’ plans start to fall awry when one of them suffers a sudden complication, but by then, their bond has become so well established, with God at the very core, that nothing will ever crumble their friendship. This is the first in a series of novels, the story of a friendship club like no other, with God guiding each heart, as the members learn what unconditional love truly means.
