Description - The Nearest Faraway Place by Hayley Long
Griff and Dylan are just returning from a holiday with their parents, sweltering in the heat in the back of a Morris Mini, about to cross into Manhattan. Out of the corner of his eye Dylan is distracted by something sparkly, flying through the air. And then it happens. A trailer from the lorry in front smashes into their car. Dylan and Griff's parents are killed.
The boys are suddenly orphans with nowhere to go until a kind aunt and uncle give them a new home in Wales. Now Dylan and Griff have everything they need - love, a happy home and future. But Dylan is worried about Griff: whether he is OK, whether he is copying with the terrible loss. He doesn't seem to speak about it or really acknowledge it. And Dylan has something else that he needs to come to terms with too.
