Synopsis:
After
receiving a full-ride scholarship to Mills College for Girls, it
appears Sarah's future is all laid out before her ... that is until she
walks into a poetry class led by Mr. Haddings, a student teacher from
the nearby University of Washington. Suddenly, life on the UW campus
seems very appealing, and Sarah finds herself using her poetry journal
to subtly declare her feelings for Haddings. Convinced Mr. Haddings is
flirting back, she sets off for school in the rain with a poem in her
back pocket---one that will declare her feelings once and for all.
Mr.
Haddings has noticed Sarah's attention; the fallout from any perceived
relationship with a student is too great a risk, and he has decided to
end all speculation that morning.
But
everything changes when Mr. Haddings feels a thud on his front bumper
when he glances away from the road, and finds Sarah in the street with
blood pooling beneath her.
