Thirteen-year-old Ethan Chambers stands in shock as he peers over the edge of the bridge at the car below. The crushed, eerily silent car. Smoke drifts, and a torrent of rain begins to fall. How did this happen? It was only a simple initiation into a gang in Harmony Middle School, The Society. A mischievous prank. A little harmless fun. No one was supposed to get hurt. Now Ethan must live with the consequences of his actions and their devastating effect on the community, or confess what heÕs done, knowing that he may have to betray his friendsÕ trust. As the son of the townÕs sheriff, no decision for Ethan will be easy. When The Society meets secretly in the basement of a crumbling old house reputed to be haunted, a rediscovered secret may point the way to EthanÕs salvation. But will he listen to a voice from the past and his own conscience before itÕs too late?
