To the Point, a new book by Tom Tofte
When seventeen-year-old Lori leaves her stepfather’s house, she decides to go to Decorah, Iowa, a city 50 miles away from her home, with little more than hope and no friends or family to help her. But then, sheltered and not allowed to attend school after her mother passed away years earlier, Lori is left with little choice but to escape from her terrible home life into a future she can’t imagine. Along the way, she is picked up by an older man who takes her to Decorah and throughout the book stays in contact with her. She is saved by a 23-yearold Cale, who sees her drowning in a pond.
