In a tale ripped from the headlines, award-winning author P.D. Workman brings you Gabriel Tate’s harrowing story. Gabriel has dealt with mysterious medical issues his whole life. Just when he finally thought that they had all of the answers and he was on the road to good health, he is apprehended by DFS on the grounds of medical neglect. At first, he thought that he would be back home in a few days, once the misunderstanding was cleared up. But when Renata tells Gabriel her crazy conspiracy theories, Gabriel feels the first pangs of doubt. Is there really a conspiracy? Will he ever be able to get well and go back to his mother, or is he doomed to be another guinea pig for Doctor De Klerk? Repeat winner of School Library Journal’s In the Margins awards, Mito will open your eyes to a dark secret that the medical community would rather you didn’t know.
