Isaac and the Sky

By Mark Benson

He was eight when his abusive dad killed his mom, with the horror captured in a single Pulitzer-prize winning photograph: little Isaac, being led from the house with his puppy Miles, splashed in blues and reds of police lights. Today, he's bullied at school, handled with kid gloves by his adoptive uncle, and spends most of his time with an old and gray Miles, hiding in his parents abandoned house.

But one evening, he discovers his mom's old telescope, points it at the sky, and makes a shocking discovery. Now he has a choice: Continue to hide himself and his discovery from the world, or risk letting a viral relapse spiral his life out of control again.

The discovery of the millennium awaits his decision.
