Stone Water (Laurel-Leaf Books)

Grant Hughes is asked by his beloved grandfather to help him die if he is transferred to the terminal ward of his nursing home. Both Grant's parents are lawyers, and his father is emotionally distant. Because Grant's grandfather does not feel he can trust his son or daughter-in-law to honor his last wishes, he turns to Grant as his only hope. Engaging and intelligent, Grant's story examines and illuminates the moral, ethical, and legal implications of an increasingly prominent and controversial human issue.
