I was a little reminded of a dark Kevin Brooks mystery while reading this YA novel. Dooley is 17 and trying to turn his life around, but he keeps being accused of things. He lives with his ex-cop uncle, tried to stay away from drugs and alcohol, and tries to keep a quiet profile at school. But then he sees a teenage boy take a dive off the bridge. Was it murder? An accident? Suicide? Beth, the dead kid's sister, is gorgeous and Dooley tries to help her figure out what happened. But since the police are on Dooley's case because of his record, Dooley has to take the mystery solving into his own hands.
