End over end

"Ivory is fourteen. She's in love with Blake Parady, whom she's forbidden to see. Still, she meets him, and other guys, too, at the gravel pit where there's drinking every warm summer night. Ivory's parents are worried. At home she's moody and secretive; they fear she's growing up too wild, too fast. But in their rural pocket of New England, life's hard all around. They tell themselves it's just a phase she'll soon pass through safely.".

"One Friday night in July, after lying about her weekend plans, Ivory is walking down a rain-slicked road, headed for Blake's, when a motorbike shoots out of the dark. It's Tommy, Blake's friend, who's happy to give her a ride.".

"Sunday night, Ivory doesn't come home. She's vanished, it seems. None of the kids who've seen her that weekend will talk to parents or police. Somebody knows what happened, but no one will tell. Could she have run away? Her girlfriends don't believe it; neither do her parents." "Months later, the police think they have the answer. But can the truth ever be known?"--BOOK JACKET.
