How far would you go to love someone well?

Grayson Hayes is a sharp-tongued, witty wordsmith. But the stream of language has become a trickle as words skitter from his mind. Dreading this growing loss and desperate to care for his wife after he's gone, he hatches a plan that requires a cross-country road trip to the West Virginia of his youth.

On the journey, Grayson encounters people, places, and forgotten wrongs done that greatly affected others and shaped his own story. What is the value of a life that diminishes daily? Will Gray find the peace and resolution he's searching for? And what does love look like for those who surround this force of nature?

In Saving Grayson, bestselling and award-winning author Chris Fabry takes us into a world of love and loss, dementia and startling clarity, hope and despair. We shake our heads (and sometimes laugh) at Gray's crusty antics. We share his fear of what's to come. And we root for him and those who love him to find answers before the words become a distant memory.
