A desperate act. A shocking choice. When Jessica Wakefield walked into the Red Lion, all she wanted was a cup of coffee. Instead she got a gun in her face when everyone inside the popular hangout was taken hostage by a fellow student gone mad.
Jessica never imagined that shy, innocent-looking Trevor Paley would be capable of committing such a violent act. He always seemed like a nice guy. So Jessica figures she can talk Trevor down before the body count goes up. But as Jessica gets closer to Trevor, she comes to understand why he snapped. She even begins to like him. And she's no longer sure if she wants to turn him in - or help him escape . . .
