About The Book
From the author of Don’t Hurt Laurie and The Minden Curse comes a thrilling and frightening story about a teenage boy who sets out to solve the death of a man who fell from a bridge onto the hood of the boy’s car.
When a falling body strikes the hood of Nick’s Pinto as he drives under the overpass, the police close the case, calling the man’s death a suicide. Haunted by the expression on the man’s face as he fell to his death, Nick is not so certain that’s what happened.
Suspecting murder, he risks his life as he places himself and a close friend in the center of danger trying to investigate what exactly happened to the mysterious man that fell on his car.
