A fictional account of a very real situation; depression and suicidal inclinations.  The story introduces us to two teenagers that are sorting through their feelings in different ways and end up meeting on a Bridge.  Their lives become intertwined because of the results of their decisions.  The book uses the "Butterfly Effect" to show how things could be different with different choices made and how you are never alone.
