Then, all of a sudden, it's dark and thick with clouds, pressing down right on top of you. The leaves turn silvery and twist in the wind, the air starts to hum, and the rain comes, so heavy and fast you can't even see. You almost never make it to the house on time.

A dead body on the road--who is responsible and how will it affect the lives of three teens?

For fourteen-year-old Lucy Martinez, the moment when...
