In this searing indictment of the juvenile justice system, one incarcerated teen weighs what she is willing to endure for forgiveness.
In her quest to prove her remorse, Violetta is forced to confront not only her family\'s grief, but her own--and the question of whether their forgiveness is more important than forgiving herself..
The Trials are no easy feat, but if she succeeds, she could regain both her freedom and what she wants most of all: her family\'s love.
Denied their forgiveness, Violetta is now left with two options, neither good--remain in juvenile detention for an uncertain sentence or participate in the Trials. . .
But without it? Well .
With their forgiveness, she could go home.
Under the juvenile justice system, her fate lies in the hands of those she\'s wronged--her family.
After driving drunk and causing the accident that kills her little sister, Violetta is incarcerated.
All it took was one night and one bad decision for fifteen-year-old Violetta Chen-Samuels\' life to go off the rails.
