About this listen

In a coming-of-age story reminiscent of The Outsiders, 13-year-old Reason Nelson attends a party that is busted by the local police. As he flees, he collides with a detective and a drug dealer. He snatches up what he believes to be his leather jacket and crawls into a doghouse. In the pocket of this coat, Reason discovers a key that opens a safe-deposit box containing evidence that will solve the murder of a young female informant. Reason finds himself running from both the drug dealer who murdered her and the detective trying to solve her murder.

Scratchin’ on the Eight Ball, the first of the three-book Havelock Chronicles, is the most lost, stolen, and missing book in the Lincoln Public Schools and public library system. Used in treatment centers, detention facilities, alternate schools, and three federal pens, it is not a boring book!
