Soon after the death of his best friend and comedy double-act partner Declan, Chris loses the ability to speak. The rest of his class are initially sympathetic but quickly turn on him – with the exceptions of new boy Will, and Declan’s ex-girlfriend Ariel. Can Chris find his voice – and tell someone what actually happened on the night that Declan died?
Another of the year's top teen contemporaries so far, [[Skin Deep by Laura Jarratt]], also tackles the aftermath of a car crash. It's definitely one you shouldn't miss.
