Prairie Milestone | 2 comments I dont remember the author or title but I remember some of the plot. I read it about 2 years ago now. It was a young adult thriller about a ritch kid who liked to go caving but when he goes into one of the caves it collapses on him and knocks him out. When he wakes up he finds that hes suspended above a huge drop and theres some kids on a ledge(4 of them I think-2 girls 2 boys) not to far from him that help him get over to safety. They soon realize they cant go out the way they came in and are forced to go deeper into the cave system to search for another way out. As the story goes on, the kids that helped him mysteriously die off one but one and the mmc is the only one to make it out alive. After he's out he tells the rescue people the names of the kids that were down there with him and it turns out that he had cave rapture and imagined the whole thing. But the IMPORTANT PART is that the main character had killed some kids in a car crash and those are the same kids he imagined in the cave. The kids died in the cave the same way they did in the car crash. Like one kid was impaled on a stalagmite in the cave and in the crash he was impaled by something like a pole/sign post or something. His family covered up the whole crash incident to protect him but after his whole experience he decides to go to court and own up to his mistakes and his part in their deaths. Im really bad with nanes so these could be wrong but i think some of the kids names were Kitt and Margaret/Marie or something like that. I've been looking for this book for weeks now and its starting to drive me a little crazy so I'd appreciate it so much if anyone could tell me the name of it. Thanks.
