The boy in question was 15, older than the children Hayden usually worked with, and she wasn't inclined to start working with him, to begin with. When she did, the results were miraculous, but also very frightening...

One of Torey's very best. It's not set in a classroom like most of her other stories. It is a very intensive study of one particular child and the lengths she went through to reach him. Torey Hayden has a way of making you care about all of her kids, no matter how disturbed they may be and that's a gift. I always end up rooting for Torey and her kids when I read the books. This book will keep you interested and fascinated.

Another great read by Torey Hayden--this one about an adolescent who refuses to speak. When he does, finally, what he has to say is hair-raising. Just like the rest of her books, this one is fascinating and engaging, incredibly hard to put down.
