SYNOPSIS: “Even though Micah’s one of the stars of a local sports team, he knows that his older sister Lindsey is the real deal — a runner so good she has a chance of making it to the Olympics. The two of them urge each other on, and are each other’s best support. Then the unthinkable happens: Lindsey is murdered, and Micah is found with her body. But Micah can’t remember what happened, no matter what their parents tell him, no matter what the police say. He cannot remember what happened. Did he witness his sister’s murder — or commit it? Can he uncover the truth before his life is sentenced to end, too?”
