Going Underground
Author: Susan Vaught
Expected Release Date: September 13, 2011
Summary from Goodreads:
Del is a good kid
who's been caught in horrible circumstances. At seventeen, he's trying
to put his life together after an incident in his past that made him a
social outcast-and a felon. As a result, he can't get into college; the
only job he can find is digging graves; and when he finally meets a girl
he might fall in love with, there's a sea of complications that
threatens to bring the world crashing down around him again. But what
has Del done? In flashbacks to Del's fourteenth year, we slowly learn
the truth: his girlfriend texted him a revealing photo of herself, a
teacher confiscated his phone, and soon the police were involved.
Basing
her story on real-life cases of teens in trouble with the law for
texting explicit photos, Susan Vaught has created a moving portrait of
an immensely likable character caught in a highly controversial legal
scenario.
