'There were four suspects in the crime that occurred on the sidewalk of Piney Creek Road. I should tell you now that I was one. Hear me out. Let me explain . . .'
On a summer's evening in 1989, on an empty street in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, fifteen-year-old Lindy Simpson is knocked from her bike and attacked just yards from her home. No one sees or hears anything. The police have few suspects and no real clues. Eventually the community puts it behind them. Everyone tries to move on.
But one fourteen-year-old boy, who may have seen things he shouldn't, can't forget. Secretly drawn to Lindy and this shocking neighbourhood crime, he is determined to uncover the truth no matter the cost to others, to himself and even to Lindy . . .
