While being held in prison as a suspect in a murder, Steve writes about his trial and his own feelings in screenplay and diary format. The contrast between the black-and-white, you-never-know-who's-lying courtroom scenes and Steve's own emotional yet guarded diary entries are intriguing, and even the reader is left wondering whether Steve is an innocent kid stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time, or the "monster" that the prosecuter makes him out to be...or somewhere in between.
