Trixie Stone wasn't happy when Jason broke up with her. Setting out to get him back had consequences she hadn't considered, however. Rape was not something she could have forseen happening to her, by the boy she had loved for some time. A fifteen-year-old with little awareness of the power of love, jealousy, wanting and needing to be Jason's girl drove her to take risks one night.
The results of that night of risks were rape, ostracism, unleashing the barely hidden fury of her father - a former Alaskan Upek who once was accused of killing his best friend - and the eventual death of Jason. Did Jason commit suicide, as it initially appears? Did Daniel Stone push him off a bridge in anger over the rape of his daughter? Did Trixie take her own personal revenge on Jason? This intensely written novel explores the psyche of a teenage girl, her deranged father - angry about the violation of his daughter and the affair his wife has been having with one of her college students, the wife's remorse and attempts to put her marriage back together and be there for the daughter who so desperately needs her. | ||
