博客來What if the best day of your life turns out to be the last day of your life? And what if no one cares enough to find out what really happened, except your best friend?
Fifteen-year-old Vickie Bartolucci knows Blueberry Hill Home for Troubled Youth is where rich families quietly warehouse their troublesome kids.
Raised by a working-class, single mother, Vickie is half Korean, half Italian, and one hundred percent herself.
Convinced she’ll never fit in, the last thing she expects to find is a friend. And, like a bodega cat, once Vickie’s your friend, she’s a friend for life, a friend to the end.
When three teenagers disappear from Blueberry Hill and her new best friend dies under mysterious circumstances, Vickie and a reluctant band of fellow teens set out to discover what’s happening before another one of them is next. The teens are all locked away at Blueberry Hill for different reasons, but they have one thing in common. There’s something about them that the adults in their lives can’t manage. And if their parents couldn’t handle it, how can they be sure that they can? It’s a motley crew, but all she’s got.
Vickie owes it to her friend to find out the truth, even if it means risking her own life-or worse.
That’s what friends do.
