Publisher Description

Thirteen-year-old Stacy is sunbathing in the backyard when she hears a strange noise from inside the house. Turning to look, she sees a man with a gun burst through the door; then everything goes black. She wakes up in a hospital bed to learn that she has spent the last four years in a catatonic state. Suddenly 17, she finds herself struggling to adjust and fighting to remember what happened to her. She is the only witness to the shooting that injured her and killed her mother. Her memory is hazy, but slowly more details of that awful day come back. She knows that it was someone familiar to her, but she can't quite see his face yet. Can Stacy remember in time to keep him from finishing what he started? Young adult mystery lovers will be enthralled by the nonstop suspense and believable characters of The Other Side of Dark. Narrator Christina Moore's reading builds the tension to a fever pitch as Stacy races against time to stop a killer.

"The book "The Other Side of Dark" was actually one of my most favorite books I have read so far. It's very in depth and keeps you wanting to read more. The author Joan Lowery Nixon does an excellent job of forshadowing, which is what makes you want to keep reading. The book is about a girl that had been in a coma for a few years and she had woken up to a totally different world. She had woken up seventeen and not knowing anything about the new technology and coming to understand that she was no longer a pre-teen. As she starts to come to get back into the groove of things, she starts to try and find her mothers murderer. With all the twists, her falling in love and the shocking discoveries, you'll be reading the book with bursting emotions during the book. I highly recommend this book for people who like mysteries and romantic stories, because it has a lot of both in the book."
