The Secret

About the Book

Mark Landsing is a student in a small northwestern community where his only claim to fame is being a go-fer, a clean-up boy for the football team. One day, one of his classmates, a new kid in town, a bully, goes missing after an altercation with the star quarterback where he nearly breaks the star's neck in a fight.

Several days after his disappearance, Mark is strolling down by the river when he comes across the boy's murdered body, hidden in his car under some brush.

The police are summoned and while Mark awaits their arrival, he comes across a vital clue that will later enable him to identify the killer, someone that would never be suspected of cold blooded murder. A friend. Presented with the dilemma, does he expose the friend to the authorities or keep the secret?
