Alys's whole world was comprised of the history project that was due, her upcoming violin audition, her boyfriend Ben's lips and laughing with her best friend, Delilah; at least it was. Until she found herself on the wrong end of a shotgun in the school library. Her suburban high school had become one of those places you hear about on the news--a place where some disaffected youth decided to end it all and take as many of his teachers and classmates with him as he could. In this story, that disaffected youth is Alys's own brother, Luke. Though she'll never know why, he spares her, but he kills fifteen others and himself. Alys and her parents' spiral begins instantly, but there seems to be no bottom and in the aftermath of what her brother has done, Alys begins to doubt she will ever be whole again. A heartbreaking and beautifully told story, Silent Alarm is also timely and will be of high interest to teens and adults alike. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге SILENT ALARM (BANASH, JENNIFER)
