circumstances of a boy's inexplicable murder and the fateful summer leading up to it.Everybody
likes Chris Goodman. Sure he's a little odd. He wears those funny bell-bottoms and he really
likes the word ennui and he shakes your hand when he meets you but he's also the kind of guy
who's always up for a good time always happy to lend a hand. Everybody likes him which makes
it especially shocking when he's murdered. Here in a stunning multi-voiced narrative -
including the perspective of the fifteen-year-old killer - and based on a true and terrible
crime that occurred when he was in high school author Allan Wolf sets out to answer the first
question that comes to mind in moments of unthinkable tragedy: how could a thing like this
happen?
