This new trilogy from three best-selling authors explores the differing perspectives of three high school seniors on the events and choices leading up to the death of a classmate, Sammy. All feel a measure of guilt for their role in the loss of their friend and must learn to understand their own life story through God's eyes instead of their own finite perspective. Kyra, Sammy's twin sister, is sure that she knows why he died. She's sure that the guilty deserve to be punished. Soon everyone in Mason, Iowa, will learn that atoning for what is wrong is a lot harder than assigning blame.

Nobody knows better than Miranda Sanchez that life isn't fair. She'd come to expect that life can kick you around, but Sammy was a different story.

Tyrone is an observer of life as it comes . . . and he's pretty unimpressed so far.

They're convinced he may not care, but he may know what really happened.
