It was a great read. I had forgotten about the incident even though I grew up in that era in Colorado. It took me back in history and reminded me of many things about Colorado. The Author obviously did a great deal of research......looking forward to her next thriller. If you have not done so, read Anne DaVigo's 2 previous thrillers......Thread Of Gold and Bakersfield Boys Club.

Loved this story, yet another wonderful thriller from Ms. Da Vigo.
The protagonist, Hannah Brightman is 17, still reeling from the loss of her mother and her father's starting a new family too soon after. Teenagers often make questionable choices, but some have more potentially dire consequences than others. This book weaves together a coming-of age story with a real-life tragedy caused by the bad decisions of the real life person of Jack Graham, who wouldn't take responsibility for his own life, convinced that short cuts would get him where he wanted to go - no matter the costs to others.
The intersection of fact and fiction is handled seamlessly, and we accompany Hannah as she struggles to learn from her mistakes and to stop Jack from carrying out the vague but clearly harmful plan she realizes she may have inadvertently been a party to. It's quite a ride!
