How long could she hide the truth?
Cassie Mullins is fed up with her parents, who think she can't be trusted to manage her diabetes. Just because she cheated on her diet and landed in the hospital. Just because she wants to be a normal kid. Only Aunt Liz seems to understand, and she urges Cassie to take a job as counsellor at a camp for diabetic children.
Camp Caribou seems like the perfect solution. Cassie's free and her parents think she's safe. There's only one problem: she's the only counsellor who is diabetic. And she has decided to keep it a secret.
It's not easy to conceal the truth. Cassie can't even tell Jason, the cute counsellor who has become a special friend. Her world falls apart when her parents show up unexpectedly and reveal her secret. Cassie's furious and ashamed. And Jason feels betrayed that she hadn't told him. Suddenly, nothing seems to matter. Why be careful when nobody trusts her anyway?
Cassie is about to learn the lesson of her life. About love, compassion, responsibility . . . and the real meaning of friendship and self-respect.
