When fifteen-year-old Derek Robertson asks his friend Grayson Wingate to help him commit burglary, both boys see it as a daring adventure. The reality, however, brings the possibility of dire consequences. The crime is easily solved, and now both boys face jail time. When Grayson's mother hires Jack Turner to defend her son, Jack realizes the root of Grayson's bad choices grow from his need for attention from his neglectful, wealthy parents, much like Jack's own problems as a young teen. Jack manages to negotiate a plea for both boys that he feels will help them considerably more than time in a local juvenile prison. Meanwhile, Derek's girlfriend, Scarlett Shandley, is having problems of her own with her parents, who are also too self-absorbed to see that their daughter needs love more than anything else. When one of the boys makes another bad decision, all their lives change forever. Read the sixth book in the series that many readers claim is one of the best ever
