The long night of Leo and Bree - Ellen Wittlinger

On the anniversary of his sister's brutal murder, Leo has to get out of the house, away from his mother, half crazy ever since it happened, away from the images in his mind of the horrific police pictures of her stabbed and bloody body. Escaping, he drives through the streets in a rage and spots Bree . . .
Bree is "slumming it" in the next town over from her posh and affluent one. She wants an evening to herself, without either her mother or her boyfriend telling her what to do or where to go.
Seeing Bree with her leather jacket and short skirt, Leo wonders why she should be alive when his sister isn't - it should have been her - angry and upset Leo grabs Bree and holds her hostage.
Through a long night of terror and fear, honesty and emotion, Leo and Bree bare their souls, face some truths and respond to each other in unexpected ways.
