About the book
A multi-authored novel featuring the points of view of 17 students who were affected by a school shooting. Each chapter is told from a different viewpoint, giving insight into who Kirby was and who he'd become. It took only twenty-two minutes for Kirby Matheson to exit his car, march onto school grounds, enter the gymnasium, and open fire, killing six and injuring five others.
