Description: Garnet Havelock knows what it's like to be on the outside, not one of the crowd. Then a mysterious girl transfers to his school and Garnet thinks he might have found the woman of his dreams-- if only he could get her to talk to him. At the same time, he becomes caught up in a mystery centered in his community. As he and Raphaella draw closer to the truth, they uncover a horrifying chapter in his town's history, and learn how deep-seated prejudices and persecution from the past can still reverberate in the present.
