Publisher's Synopsis
There are few days my thoughts don't take me back to the people and events of my senior year in high school-not because of our social science teacher who challenged us to question the way things were, or because I fell in love that year, or even because I met the most honest boy, bravest girl and meanest bullies I've ever known, but because I learned truth's real cost; I am forever wiser because of that year. Kim Romer discovers friendship, love, terror and strength, as she and her three high school classmates investigate a nine year old murder in their town. What starts as a school assignment quickly turns into a race to uncover a dark secret before others find it first and destroy lives.
