Summary:
"Fino a quella telefonata alle tre del mattino di una giornata di novembre, i Gold e i loro vicini di casa, gli Harte, sono sempre stati inseparabili. Per ben diciotto anni. Non è stata una sorpresa per nessuno, dunque, quando i loro figli adolescenti, Chris ed Emily, da semplici amici sono diventati qualcosa di più. Ma adesso la diciassettenne Emily è morta - uccisa da un colpo di pistola alla testa sparatole da Chris, in un apparente patto suicida lasciando le due famiglie devastate e alla disperata ricerca di risposte su un gesto inimmaginabile, di due figli che forse non conoscevano bene come credevano. È rimasta una sola pallottola nella pistola che Chris ha preso dall'armadio del padre, una pallottola che secondo la sua versione era destinata a se stesso. Cos'è successo veramente? Un detective della polizia del luogo nutre più di un dubbio sul patto suicida descritto dal ragazzo e inizia un'indagine." -- publisher's or bookseller's website.
"For eighteen years the Hartes and the Golds have lived next door to each other, sharing everything from Chinese food to chicken pox to carpool duty - they've grown so close it seems they have always been a part of each other's lives. Parents and children alike have been best friends, so it's no surprise that in high school Chris and Emily's friendship blossoms into something more. They've been soul mates since they were born. So when they get a call from the hospital, to come in, at midnight, no one is ready for the appalling truth: Emily is dead at seventeen from a gunshot wound to the head. There's a single unspent bullet in the gun that Chris took from his father's cabinet-- a bullet that Chris tells police he intended for himself. But a local detective has doubts about the suicide
pact
that Chris has described."--goodreads.com
