Counselor avatar reviewed on + 85 more book reviews


About Cassie a 17 year old junior at Columine High School in Colorado. A modern day martyer. A typical teen having a typical day, when two rampaging classmates put a gun to her head and asked her if she believed in God. She said, "yes". With that simple word, the story of Cassie's courage in face of death was catapulted into the consciousness of an entire nation. Cassie's mother breaks her silence to recount the dramatic transformation of a daughter who had once started down a troubled path similar to that of her killers.
