About this Book
From bestselling author Caroline B.  Cooney comes a riveting new novel about the destructiveness of hatred, the evil of indifference, and the power of accepting love and responsibility:

Fifteen-year-old Macey Clare was looking forward to the summer, hoping for fun and romance with her neighbor's grandson, Austin.  But when Macey decides to research the burning of a barn in her hometown for a school project, she finds that no one is willing to talk about what really happened that night.  She has always loved this quiet, beautiful town where her grandparents live and her mother was raised.  Will Macey be able to face the past and understand the present?
