Leftovers - Laura Wiess

Forgiveness is far off for teenagers Blair and Ardith, best friends and accomplices in a terrible crime.
At the home of the only adult they trust, a police officer, the girls confess every horrifying detail.
But it becomes clear the act wasn't out of malice or revenge, but born of fierce loyalty and unimaginable desperation.
Written off by abusive parents and mocked and shunned by their classmates, Blair and Ardith had found a safe haven with one another.
And when that haven was threatened, they knew they must do everything in their power to protect it. Whatever the cost.
