Fallout

By Nikki Tate

Tara’s sister died a year ago, on the day that Tara didn’t answer her phone when Hannah called. Hannah stepped in front of a bus. Now Tara lives with the guilt of wondering if things would be different if she had been there when Hannah needed her most. Competing in slam poetry competitions is the only way Tara can keep her sister’s memory alive and deal with all the unanswered questions. But at the same point, Tara is going to have to let Hannah rest in peace, and she will need to find a way to move on.
