On the one hand, I have always been against murder and violence in general. Sandy seems to be a little bit more aggressive now, almost as if he might want to try to kill someone again…. Julie also notices that Sandy has been acting a little bit differently since confessing to the murder. But then Julie (who also discovered Al’s body) starts to have nightmares about Sandy and she finds it difficult to keep covering for him every time that she speaks to the police. At first, everyone’s okay with the idea of covering for Sandy because it’s not like Al was a nice guy and Sandy did promise not to kill anyone else. Who killed Al!? Well, nerdy Sandy tells his friends that he did it. (Fortunately, my sister was a year ahead of me so I could just go through her old tests if I needed the answers in advance.) Al is a real jerk and no one is that upset when he turns up dead and with a rollerblade stuffed in his mouth! Al is the type who will sell you the answers to a test and then threaten to tell everyone that you were cheating unless you keep him supplied with cash. Plus, he’s got a really bad habit of blackmailing his friends. He used to be kind of nice but, as of late, he’s been dressing in all black, drinking beer, and picking fights. Stine’s 1996 YA horror novel, The Confession. That’s the dilemma that is at the heart of R.L. What would you do if your friend confessed to committing a murder?
