Fiction by Diane Chamberlain
Andy Lockwood is fifteen years old, but he seems younger. This is because he has developmental delays from FASD (fetal alcohol syndrome disorder.) But he still wants to fit in and be a normal teenager; that's why he goes to a youth lock-in at the local church. Then the church catches on fire, and Andy's unusual way of thinking helps him find a way out of the building and help save some of the other kids. Things turn dark, however, when it's discovered that the fire was deliberately set, and Andy is accused of arson.
This was a really good book with great characters. There were several surprises in store as well.
I also read recently by this author: Fire and Rain
