Publisher's Synopsis
Fifteen-year old Ryan Westmore is haunted by the recent murders of his older brother and their friend Alicia Floyd. Complicating his grief is the arrival of his new English teacher who bears a striking resemblance to Alicia. Summoned to testify at the murder trial, Ryan gives damaging testimony incriminating Tony Garrett, the henchman in Jeb Lewis's crime ring. When the trial ends on a technicality, Ryan learns that Garrett has been released and that Lewis has no intentions of allowing Ryan to testify at a second trial. With his life and the welfare of others at stake, Ryan makes a difficult choice, getting help from unlikely sources, including his new English teacher.
