(3) 4-6 Middle-schooler Brady Parks heroically rescues a little boy involved in a kayaking accident, but triumph turns to tragedy when the boy later dies and Brady realizes that his best friends sabotaged the boat as a spiteful prank. The deliberately paced novel features a strong Chesapeake Bay setting and a thought-provoking moral dilemma as Brady debates whether to turn in his friends.
