About No Fences in Alaska by Glen Sobey

A troubled teen flees to Alaska to start a new life with her grandpa, even as his fades.

Their worlds are about to come crashing down…

Harper Lyon’s life is spinning out of control. Sixteen years old in high school, she threatens her parents with suicide unless she can meet her drug-dealing boyfriend, a college student who doesn’t know she’s pregnant.

Cooper Lyons, her estranged grandfather, lives in rural Alaska with only his dog and cat for company. He has just been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s, and he doesn’t plan on letting the disease run its course.

When Harper calls her grandfather, he welcomes the opportunity to help her and redeem his previous failure with his daughter Heather, who died from a drug overdose years ago.

Harper needs to escape her parents and decide what to do about the baby. She and her grandpa are worlds apart, but they may be exactly what the other needs.

Can they save each other?
