The First Stone

Reef is an embittered young offender, hardly able to contain his anger at the world over the death of his grandmother, the only person who had shown him any love. Seventeen-year-old Leeza is mourning the death of her older sister. A stone hurled in rage shatters both their lives and throws them together in the most unexpected way—and offers them a chance at healing.

"The First Stone might just break your heart. Luckily, however, Don Aker is right there to sew it back together again, an act he accomplishes with humor, real compassion, and a surgeon's eye for detail. Your heart will be stronger for the experience." - Tim Wynne-Jones
