Gripped Part 3: The Fallout

By Stacy A. Padula

One choice. One betrayal. Total chaos.

In Montgomery, Massachusetts, redemption hangs by a thread-and one reckless party could snap it for good.

After a brush with death, Chris Dunkin vows to turn his life around, ditching the drugs and chaos for positive vibes and sobriety. But when his best friend Jason talks him into hosting an epic bash the night before school starts, Chris uncovers truths about himself that hit harder than any high.

Meanwhile, Taylor Dunkin fights to rebuild from his opioid nightmare, only to get tangled in a deadly game with cops and criminals. His brother Marc steps in as the go-between, but the "help" offered could cost their family everything-putting lives on the line in a web of danger and deception.

As addictions resurface and loyalties fracture, who will escape the wreckage?

Raw and unflinching, Gripped Part 3: The Fallout lays bare the brutal consequences of America's teen drug crisis.
