Previously published as The Healing Tomb by Noah Declan.
Henry is deeply ashamed of the horrible abuse he suffered as a child. Any lie or terrible risk seems worthwhile to hide that secret from his parents and friends.
His abuser returns, after six years away, stirring up shattered memories that provoke painful questions. When his teacher is found bludgeoned to death, his best friends Ryan and Madison protect and hide him from a city-wide manhunt in a desperate effort to prove his innocence.
But after daring escapes across Niagara Falls to the darkest refuge, he faces the most horrifying question of all: Did he murder his teacher? With numerous gaps in his memory, could he have committed the crime and not remember it?
Note: This novel presents some of the psychological effects of past abuse with brief flashbacks.
