    Hardcover (Gulliver Books, April 1, 1998)
    Nell spends every summer with her aunt Ursa and cousin Foley. This summer she finds she is strongly attracted to Foley's smooth-talking best friend, Slade. When Slade and Foley beg her to hide Foley's Raven .25, a pistol her cousin purchased in a gun-running scheme, Nell reluctantly agrees -- even though the weapon scares her and hiding it means lying to her aunt. Nell is haunted by guilt when tragedy strikes and Foley runs away. Could she have prevented Slade's death? Should she have told Aunt Ursa what the two boys were up to? Seeking answers, Nell turns to her father, who must face his own conflicted feelings about his family and his past. In the end Nell learns the importance of making choices for herself, telling the truth, and about the healing power of a strong family.
