Opis

One day Lindy Simpson cycles home from school and straight into a trap: someone is lying in wait for her, a wire strung between lampposts across the path. She is raped just yards from her front door. No one sees a thing and the perpetrator is not caught. Her fourteen-year-old neighbour has loved Lindy from afar since they were kids.

Recenzje

Try and restrain yourself from flying through the pages of this wonderful novel. Savour this lush Louisiana mystery, vivid colors and scents, treetops and grasses... The last page is as satisfying as the first. Kathryn Stockett, bestselling author of 'The Help'
