Chaetoria writes: This book is really suspenseful. It starts out with a young boy who is on trial for murder. He was the lookout person when a drugstore is robbed. He finds himself in jail being charged with felony murder because the store owner is dead. Steve Harmon spends his time in jail writing in his journal wondering if he is ever going to make it out of jail. Cathy O’Brien is his lawyer and she is trying to prove him innocent. He gets to know her and gets to tell her about the crime. I think you would like this book because it shows what a 16 year old boy has to go through because of a bad choice. |
