I must confess, I'll read ANYthing by Evan Hunter/Ed McBain. This is supposed to be a young-teen book, but I'm knocking on 72 and I couldn't put it down! You read the words, but you're also "feeling the feelings" of Abby, Pete, Lillith and Frank as they work through the problems of busted-up families. Evan Hunter really writes to the heart!
