Book description
A tense, exciting thriller combined with a perceptive and harrowing

and vulnerable homeless. 17-year-old Link is distrustful of people
until he pairs up with Deb, homeless like him. But what Deb doesn't
tell him is that she's an ambitious young journalist on a self-imposed
assignment to track down the killer and that she's prepared to use
herself as bait ...
