From the Back Cover:

"The charges! They've made the charges!"
     "Socrates is doomed!"
     A man flung himself into the doorway. His chiton was rumpled. His eyes were glassy.
     "Meletus made the charges!" the man cried out. Everyone in the shop stopped talking. The potters' wheels turned to a stop.
     Aleesa felt a knot tie in her stomach. She was afraid to heare what he would say. This was an awful feeling. She squeezed her hands together.
     Kenneth stared at the man. His mouth felt dry. He knew what was going to happen to Socrates. If he and Aleesa didn't do anything about it.
