Who would do something so terrible?
Certainly not someone like Devon—straight-A student, soccer player with Olympic dreams, more mature than her own mother. But desperation and panic drove her to do what most people can’t even imagine. Now Devon’s in a juvenile detention center charged with attempted murder. If she’s tried as an adult, she faces life in prison. Does Devon deserve that punishment? Your answer depends on whether you believe her story.





"This book really takes you inside the mind of Devon and how she was in denial. Its a great book, and it makes you understand to not judge someone before knowing there reasons why for doing something that awful. I loved reading this book! Amy Efaw is a great author! :)"

" there is no excuse, ever to put a living child in a dumpster. You can take it to a hospital or fire station."

"This book was truly amazing. I could actually see everything happening in my head. I could see inside Devons cell, I could see the judge making decisions, I could picture Dom with a stern face. Devons decision at the end really surprised me. I had no idea that it was coming. Even though she made that decision I think there should be some type of follow up book. Like Devons life after she pleads guilty. Or even a book about the baby!"

"This book was just absolutely outstanding! It tells the story of a girl who threw away her infant in the dumpster behind her house. Throughout the book,it describes how the main character, Devon, went through this nightmare. This book was definitely a page-turner, and one that I would read over and over again."

"I started reading this book for a ban booked project. However, when I finished reading, I realized that it had a deeper meaning just the fact that someone threw away her baby in the dumpster. I had a look on the insight of the mothers point of view, also. I truly enjoyed this book! thank you :)"
