Summary
Having created a dangerous story in order to avoid getting in trouble for coming home so late, Anna, Emma, and Mariah find themselves in a very bad spot when the police get involved, the town becomes enraged, and a man is suddenly arrested for a crime that never happened.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: There was a man. He had a knife. He attacked us down by the river.

It was just a harmless little lie.

Anna, Emma and Mariah concoct a story about why they're late getting home one night—a story that will replace their parents' anger with
concern. They just have to stand by it. No matter what. Suddenly the police are involved, and the town demands that someone be punished. And then there is the man who is arrested and accused of a crime that never happened.
