Stopped Cold

Things aren't what they seem in peaceful Mistville, North Carolina. Margaret McWhorter enjoys a laid-back Freshman year in high school swimming and hanging out with friends-until the day her brother, Sean, suffers a stroke from taking steroids. Now he's lying unconscious in a hospital. Anger sets a fire for retribution inside her, and Margaret vows to make the criminals pay. Even the cop on the case can't stop her from investigating. Looking for justice, she convinces two friends, Jimmy and Emily to join her in a quest that takes them through a twisted, drug-filled sub-culture they discover deep in the woods behind the school. Time and again they walk a treacherous path, and come face-to-face with danger.All the while Margaret really wants to cure Sean, heal the hate inside, and open her heart to love.
