Buy book: $15.56

"Aftermath" is set in East Breed’s, Pennsylvania, a blue-collar town that simmers with barely concealed prejudices and unspoken rules. One Friday night in the parking lot of a chain restaurant, class tension erupts in a brutal fight between the privileged boys from St. Brendan’s and a group of kids from the local high school. Casey Fielder, the restaurant’s manager, watches the melee but does nothing to stop it. When the fight ends, Colin Chase, a handsome, cocky student at St. Brendan’s, is left severely brain-damaged.

I am definitely going to read this book.....excellent so far and i'm hooked only after 2 days.

Interesting story so far. Good direction, character description, and a very smooth writing style. I'll look for this when it comes out.....How do you know when a pre-pub will be out?
