(2) YA Distracted and ever more reckless, Jason dreams of being a championship rollerblader but is afraid of being caught for his accidental killing of a young boy. His girlfriend, Cat, has joined his band of skaters but is becoming increasingly disturbed by their violent activities. The narrative shifts back and forth between Jason's and Cat's voices but reads smoothly and, at times, eloquently. A promising first novel.
