Blurb:
What happens when a teenage girl flees after physical abuse at the hands of a classmate, only to be saved from certain death by a boy she has consciously avoided? And where can she turn after her father's rage and inability to listen to his daughter's explanation cause a community's rush to judgment against this boy who has acted heroically and ethically? These are the compelling questions posed in The Blizzard by Marty Martins, one of those rare novels that grabs our attention and holds it until the final page.
"Great job by this author of "getting into the head" of today's teens. I have recommended this book to many Young Adult librarians and teaching friends to be included in their reading lists! Highly recommend." -Linda at Goodreads
