About this ebook
Two teenagers meet Mac, a homeless person, who they knew as Rock Man from a fantasy realm. Together, they try to help a runaway teenager, who has dissociated, "up above" into a symbolic world. Things become even more complicated when their lives intersect with a doctor in need of a human subject for a risky experimental procedure. In the end something uncanny happens, which show Zoe and Tod their fantasy has some basis in reality. This story explores the meaning of symbolic worlds, the danger that others can pose in not understanding them, and how resolution and true healing can occur.
