Another good read

I just finished the book The Testimony by Anita Shreve. A darn good read; one you must pick up and read this summer. I read it in just over a day's time.

It set at a private school and centers around how a scandalous act committed on campus affects the lives of those at the center of the incident, the school, and even the town. How one decision, in turn affects another decision, how emotions, perceptions, and actions are all related and come crashing together one night.

The story is told through various characters and the circumstances leading up to the incident, how they dealt with the incident, a sort of flash-forward from another character, and the aftermath of it all.
