It's been three years since the Virgil County High School Massacre.
Three years since my best friend, Sarah, was killed in a bathroom stall
during the mass shooting. Everyone knows Sarah's story--that she died
proclaiming her faith.
But it's not true.
I know because I was with her when she died. I didn't say anything then,
and people got hurt because of it. Now Sarah's parents are publishing a
book about her, so this might be my last chance to set the record
straight...but I'm not the only survivor with a story to tell about what
did--and didn't--happen that day.
Except Sarah's martyrdom is important to a lot of people, people who
don't take kindly to what I'm trying to do. And the more I learn, the
less certain I am about what's right. I don't know what will be worse:
the guilt of staying silent or the consequences of speaking up....
