Hideout by Watt Key
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this suspenseful middle grade thriller about Sam, son of a sheriff, and Davey, a boy he meets on a remote island near his Gulf Shore Home. Sam is ultra responsible, but due to circumstances, when his Dad gives him a boat, Sam heads out intending to disobey his father's rules, and then he meets Davey, whose story is unbelievable, he is waiting at his family's old home in the thick of the woods. As Sam helps Davey with supplies and food, they bond as they make this place ready for "his family" but things are so not what they seem. I loved Sam's bravery and rooted for him---readers will too! A must read!
