Beschreibung

Every teenager thinks he or she is the only person in the world going through turbulent, rebellious times. There are awkward social graces, peer pressures, parents who don't care to understand, physical growth, anger, bodily experiments, and oh, yes, there are resulting consequences!Sixteen year old Gerri DeMore faces pressures of growing up and her conclusions are she feels abandoned by her parents and left to find her own way through the maze of life. When she's subjected to external jolts of inhumane, unimaginable tragedy she's defenseless and buried into depths of despair and anger. She reacts with sixteen year old choices leading down dark paths. Thank God she's got friends who step forward: Paulette Guthrie, her neighbor, Daniel Penn, a dreamboat teacher, Len Ferguson, a handsome policeman, and Jake Waltrip, a ringer for James Dean. Gerri's survival hangs in the balance between people she trusts and the wisdom of her tender sixteen years. Can she survive when some of those she trusts circle her like hungry hyenas?
