Follows six teenagers as they are brought into close contact over the course of one tense week, in a town with political and personal tensions that build until one fires a fatal gunshot.
A gun is sold in the classifieds after killing a spouse. It is bought by a teenager for needed protection. Several people have the incentive to pick up a gun, to fire it. Was it Rand or Cami, married teenagers with a young son? Was it Silas or Ashlyn, members of a white supremacist youth organization? Daniel, who fears retaliation because of his race, who possessively clings to Grace, the love of his life? Or Noelle, who lost everything after a devastating accident, and has sunk quietly into depression? Someone will fire. And someone will die. But who?-- adapted from amazon.com information.

Drawn Out submitted by tiahna1234 on July 14, 2019, 8:52am This book has nearly 400 pages of build-up before the climax happens and takes place over the course of a page and a half. Lots of build-up that sometimes made it feel drawn out.
