Two teens, from two very different worlds, have a brief encounter on a public bus that will change both of their lives. This heart-breaking true story recounts a crime and its consequences, a story that delves deep into the lives of both victim and perpetrator, and in the process uncovers larger truths about the justice system, prejudice, and the racial divide that persists in society.
Ages 12-18.
