Summary
Michael Grove was sixteen years old when he was convicted for the murder of Lisa Conroy, his beloved girlfriend. A public outcry against light penalties for young offenders ensured that Michael was tried as an adult and received a harsh… sentence, but six months into his imprisonment, the true murderer confessed. Michael was released, but quickly found that the stigma of imprisonment and the (wrongful) rap for murder was not an easy thing to escape. Descriptions of sex, some strong language and some descriptions of violence. For senior high readers. 2008.
