Torey Adams' life changes when classmate Christopher Creed disappears. Chris was considered a loser, no ones friend. When Torey's name is mentioned in an e-mail - the last communication from Chris - guilt sets in and Torey feels compelled to learn more. What he finds is haunting; hidden town secrets and relationships that change as Torey learns more. Slow to start, but becomes an intriguing page turner. An excellent read. Some strong language and sexual references. Printz Honor Book.
