Description
After discovering that his dad yearns for love and connection, Timmy’s first instinct was to run—and run he did. Hurt and confused, he sought refuge in the wilderness, climbing the slopes of Grand Monadnock. But his escape coincided with the arrival of an early season storm, one that swept across the summit with blinding speed, burying the mountain under a thick layer of snow. As the storm rages, the entire town of Keene rallies to search for him, their urgency growing with each passing moment. The clock is ticking, and Timmy’s life hangs in the balance.
Whispers of the mountain’s legends begin to circulate among the searchers. Stories of Charaka, a mythical guardian said to protect those lost on the mountain, offer a flicker of hope. Could the ancient tales hold a shred of truth? As the snow deepens and temperatures plummet, Timmy is forced to confront not just the dangers of the storm, but also the choices that led him there. Alone in the icy wilderness, he begins to question whether his father’s desire for love was as frightening as he thought—and whether running away was truly the solution.
Back in town, hope fades as days slip by. Thanksgiving arrives, heavy with sorrow. Timmy’s father and sisters, their hearts fractured by regret and helplessness, brace themselves for the unthinkable. The official search is called off. What was once a mission of rescue has turned into a grim expectation of recovery.
Yet, in the heart of despair, the mountain holds its secrets. Will Charaka reveal herself to save Timmy, or will the young boy’s rash decision lead to a tragic end? As the storm clears, the answer may lie in the thin veil between myth, faith, and reality. One thing is certain: the events on Grand Monadnock will leave an indelible mark on Timmy, his family, and the town of Keene forever.
