17yo Ben Hamer is harassed by the local police just because his father is in prison. His luck seems about to change when a cute girl named Abigail asks him out. The date goes from great to a nightmare when he inadvertently becomes an accomplice to robbery and Abigail frames him for it, causing Ben to go on the run.
Fast paced with an intriguing plot. The language was rough. I couldn't figure out why Ben still thought Abigail was cute after what she did. The language was rough, but the storyline should still suck in reluctant readers . No culture or race is mentioned.
