If terrorism begins at home, then school bullies are the first
wave... Thirteen year-old Magdalene Barrows is still reeling from
her brother Michael's disappearance the previous summer. Now
another child has vanished. There's been a shooting in a second
grade classroom. Eight-year-old Katie has a ring of bruises around
her arm. And Magdalene believes the bullies are to blame. It is
nine months after 9/11, and Mondauk County is on edge and seething
with secrets. Magdalene's father, the recently sober assistant DA,
has been assigned the prosecution of the second grade shooter and
(bowing to political pressure) the boy's mother. Magdalene, who
ended the school year with her second suicide attempt, uncovers
connections between the school bullies, Katie's father, and the
widow of a firefighter slain on 9/11 that may link the school
shooting to the disappearances. But to confront bully chieftain
Stevie Rich, she will have to enter the lawless recesses of
Paradise Lakes Trailer Park. Magdalene must race against impending
indictments, as well as reoccurring dreams that threaten to reveal
her role in her brother's fate, in order to rescue Katie and solve
a murder before the bullies make her the next citizen of Mondauk
County to disappear.
