This book has stayed with me for eight years! That is the mark of a truly good novel, when the storyline makes such an impression on you that you feel you were THERE. The author, at the time that he wrote the novel, is "the senior books and articles editor of Cosmopolitan magazine. I highly recommend this unusual book.
