About this ebook
At the last bonfire night of the year, a teenager makes one decision that changes his life forever.
“An exploration of adolescent guilt, responsibility and connection in this modern legend . . . engaging.”—Kirkus Reviews
Tucker was supposed to be the designated driver. But something about the beauty of that last big bonfire night made him want to feel out of control just once. He drank so much and so quickly that he was instantly sick. That left Trey to drive. “I’ll catch up to you later” were the last words Tucker would ever say to his friends as he heaved by the side of the road. It was the last time Tucker would ever see them alive.
Tucker’s grief and guilt are just about unbearable, and he wonders how he can continue living himself. When he meets the Ferryman who carries the souls of the newly deceased across the rivers that divide the world of the living from the world of the dead, Tucker gets a chance to decide: live or die. The temptation to join his three best friends on the other side may be too much for Tucker to overcome.
