School Library Journal Moses and his cousin Charlie were best friends, wisecracking pranksters, unstoppable forces of teenage energyâ??until the night they became accidental arsonists and set in motion a chain of events that left Moses alone, guilt-stricken, and most likely trapped in his dead-end town. Then Moses gets a lucky break: the chance to volunteer as a camp counselor for week and prove that the incident at the bowling alley should be expunged from his record. And since a criminal record and enrollment at Duke are mutually exclusive, he's determined to get through his community service and get on with his life. But tragedy seems to follow him wherever he goes, and this time, it might just stop him in his tracks.

I feel like I didn't entirely get the point of this, but I really enjoyed it nontheless. I especially loved that the twist at the end wasn't the predictable (and boring and overdone) one - that was very refreshing! ( )
