Where did you get the gun?  Where did you hide it after you murdered him?  How did you even do it?

These are all questions that Detective Antonelli asked David, the main character of TELL, after his stepfather, Phil, was
shot and killed.

All signs pointed to David when the police found out that he was only a block away from the crime scene.  Not to mention
that he was there with Phil just moments before his stepfather's death.  David has no way of talking himself out of this one,
because no one else was there when Phil was shot.

David stretches the truth and ends up making it harder to claim himself innocent.  He has nowhere else to turn but the
TRUTH.  In the end, which will he choose--juvenile hall, or telling what really happened?

Ms. McClintock tells the tale of an amazingly thrilling murder mystery in this beautifully-written book.  She can definitely
keep the reader attached and interested.  A great read!
