Description

In the quiet town of Sterling, New Hampshire, a devastating act of violence shatters the peace when a high school student opens fire on his classmates. Amidst the chaos and tragedy, the community grapples with the aftermath, seeking answers and understanding. The story unfolds through the eyes of Josie, the daughter of the judge presiding over the case, who was present during the shooting but finds herself unable to recall the crucial nineteen minutes that hold the key to the motive. As the trial begins, Josie must confront her fractured memories and the complex web of relationships that led to the unthinkable, exploring themes of bullying, isolation, and the devastating consequences of unchecked anger.
