Born Yesterday

By Mary Duncan

Sixteen-year-old Stephanie Odom was head-over-heels for her boyfriend, John Barker. Despite the sermons she'd heard on Sundays about how wrong it was to have premarital sex, she felt the pressure and didn't want to lose him. Grace Barker (John's sister and Stephanie's best friend) tried to warn Stephanie of John's selfish ways and how dangerous and unhealthy they were.
John had already been accepted on a football scholarship to West Georgia in the fall. His dream was to become a pro one day. He spent his last few months at home, killing time. He couldn't wait to leave it all behind.
When she loses a close friend at the local fair, Stephanie realizes how quickly life can change and decides to give in to John.
Not long after, Stephanie comes face to face with her worst fear; she's pregnant! How does she break the news to John? They argued, and he dropped her off at a local convenience store.
Felton is a town where almost everyone knows each other. No one saw Stephanie being dropped off at the store that day, not even the clerk.
A few short weeks without a trace of her whereabouts, Stephanie Odom's remains are discovered in a shallow grave where all the local kids go to make out.
Small-town secrets begin to unravel. It isn't long until tips start rolling in and the killer is identified.
