The Pact by Jodi Picoult
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Chris and Emily have been together all their lives--Chris was even in the delivery room when Emily was born. Their families are neighbors and they grow up together as close as twins. At age thirteen, they began dating. Their parents envisioned their wedding in the near future.

How then did Emily end up dead from a gunshot wound? Chris is accused of her murder and spends seven months in jail awaiting trial.

Jodi Picoult tackles tough issues such as love, loyalty, family dynamics, and teen suicide.

This book was borrowed from the Edward Ward Carmack public library.
