In Her Wake (2º livro )

"Cole Reynolds has it all. Until one night when he makes a fatal, wrong decision and loses everything"

When a druken night out a Michigan State college party results in the deaths of six people, Cole must come to terms with his part in the tragedy. Normally he'd be able to lean on his best friends- the ones who have been in his life since he could barely walk. Only now, they're gone. Worse, there's the shattered body of a sixteen year old girl lying somewhere in a hospital bed, her entire life ripped from her because of a case of beer and a ser of keys.

Everyone assures him that they know it wasn't intentional, and yet he cant ignore the weight of their gazes, the whispers behind his back. Nor can he shake the all-consuming guilt he feels every time he thinks of that girl who won't so much as allow him near her hospital room to apologize. As the months go by and the shame and loneliness fester, Cole begins to lose his grip on what was once important- College, his girlfriend, his future. His life  its not until Cole hits rock bottom that he can begin to see another way out of his personal hell: forgiveness... and ther's only one person who can give that to him
