ALL PROCEEDS FROM THIS STORY GO TO THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION! A young man celebrates his eighteenth birthday with some drinking. Who could get hurt? Susan Ann Marchetti, that's who. Killed in a drinking and driving accident. And now the young man who killed her will grow to adulthood visiting her each year, as the anniversary of his birth becomes the anniversary of her death. Ten birthdays at a grave could harden anyone; who will he be at the end of this decade? Set in the same world as Bang, Boy Toy, and other Lyga novels, "Her Decade" forms a crucial backdrop to those stories, opening up new details as it reveals a powerful history for the town of Brookdale.
