Description
Thirteen-year-old, Reason Nelson, attends a party that is busted by the police. As he flees, he collides with a detective and a black drug dealer. He snatches up what he believes to be his leather jacket and drunkenly crawls into a doghouse, dragging the jacket with him. In the pocket of this coat, Reason discovers a key that opens a safe-deposit box. The box contains evidence that will solve the murder of a young female informant shot and killed in the small suburb ofHavelock.
In a coming of age story reminiscent of The Outsiders, the book is based on the unsolved murder of State Patrol informant, Patricia Webb in 1976. First published by Media Productions in 1982, the book sold 5,000 in schools, alternative schools, and institutions. 20,000 copies have been sold so far.
Currently, 8-Ball is the most lost, stolen, and missing book in the Lincoln Public Library. Kids like it so much they steal it! Care to come along for the wild ride?
