Eddie is in high school and wants to be a coal miner like everyone else, but his father has different plans for his family. \par \tab When a teenage girl is murdered, the whole town is on the case, trying to find out who did it, and Eddie is mixed up in the case. Eddie's father finds a prime suspect and tries to take him down by himself, but this is a mistake, and his son is put in grave danger.\par \par \tab This book is written in a different way than other books. It is written in the first-person view, but the person telling the story changes to any character in the book.\par \tab\i Cold Skin\i0 is called a "book in verse" because it is written as a collection of poems titled under the name of the person who is telling the story. The book has limited dialogue, and the book is usually people's thoughts about their own situation.\par \tab I recommend this book to people that like figuring out mysteries, who are not afraid to reread several pages at a time to understand the plot, and who don't get frustrated easily.\fs22\par }
