Everyone saw the video. Almost nobody saw what happened.
In Bellweather, Texas, one violent night and a blurry piece of footage are enough to turn suspicion into certainty. When seventeen-year-old Isaiah Bennett is identified by a facial-recognition system after a deadly robbery, the town decides the case is closed.
But fifteen-year-old Mara Reyes knows how quickly a story can harden into truth when screens, headlines, fear, and repetition all say the same thing. Armed with a notebook, a stubborn conscience, and a student journalist's instinct for inconvenient questions, Mara begins pulling at the loose threads.
What she discovers is more dangerous than a faulty algorithm. It is a community willing to judge before it is willing to understand.
To Judge a Shadow is a contemporary coming-of-age courtroom novel about prejudice, technology, family loyalty, moral courage, and the perilous distance between seeing someone and truly knowing them.
