It‘s a different kind of crime story that isn‘t about who did it, or why they did it, but how people respond when a crime happens in their midst. Although told from the clearly flawed perspective of this child, this novel examines the psyches of adults just as well. A compelling story about our flaws, the complexity of belonging to a community, and response to threat.
