Was a little disappointed
|
Although i loved reading the book as much as i have enjoyed all of Torey Hayden's books, I was disturbed at the end as nothing significant came out of the investigation. Surely in circumstances like this one someone must have known what was going on!! Was there a cover up? Where other children involved? Is this still happening in that town? Why were her parents not prosecuted, surely in this day and age this case can be reopened and more facts be obtained.

Brilliant!

Torey Hayden has a wonderful way of making her class room's visible to the reader.
This book had me laughing, crying and feeling sick - a truly remarkable read.
I cannot reccomend Torey Hayden's books enough, they are brilliant.

I was given this book by my friend after having seen Torey Hayden books on the shelf but never actually reading one. I was hooked. It deals with a subject that no one likes to think about in a very real and compelling way. I like the style of writing and I also like that then book was about the other children in the class. There were some very humorous moments that I felt the book needed to break up the harshness of the main subject. I enjoyed the descriptions of the classroom scenes and felt that I understood Torey better as a person during these insights. A really great read with some very real descriptions of shocking events. I will definitely be reading more by Torey Hayden.
