Description <p>"In his first book for teenagers, Dick Lehr, a former reporter for the Boston Globe&rsquo;s famous Spotlight Team, has re-imagined a case he investigated to create a compelling story about a daughter determined to prove her father&rsquo;s innocence. On a hot summer night in Boston, a thirteen-year-old African-American girl became the innocent victim of gang-related gunfire. Amid public outcry, an immediate manhunt was on to catch the murderer, and a young African-American man was quickly apprehended, charged, and &ndash; wrongly &ndash; convicted of the crime. Trell was only a baby when her father was imprisoned, but she has always been certain of his innocence. Twelve years after his conviction, she persuades a down-on-his-luck reporter and a determined lawyer to help clear her father&rsquo;s name. As they attempt to uncover back-door deals, track down crucial witnesses and unearth vital evidence that will prove her father&rsquo;s innocence, it becomes clear that some people in the neighbourhood want to keep this information hidden &ndash; at any cost."</p>
