now a major motion picture directed by Gus Van Sant (My Own Private Idaho Good Will Hunting
and Milk) It was an accident. He didn't mean to kill the security guard with his skateboard—it
was self-defense. But there's no one to back up his story. No one even knows he was at Paranoid
Park. Should he confess or can he get away with it? It's an ethical question no one should
have to answer. Writing more intensely than ever before Blake Nelson delivers a film noir in
book form complete with interior monologue and dark psychological drama. This is a riveting
look at one boy's fall into a world of crime guilt and fear—and his desperate attempt to get
out again.
