About the Author:
From AudioFile:
PETER ABRAHAMS is the author of 17 adult crime novels, including Oblivion; Delusion; NerveDamage; the Edgar Award finalist Lights Out; and The Fan, made into a feature film starringR obert DeNiro. His debut novel for young adults, Down the Rabbit Hole, was the firstin the E cho Falls mystery series; it won the Agatha Award and was nominated for anEdgar Award. Peter Abrahams grew up in Ottawa and now lives in Cape Cod..
Growing up is hard, especially when some people are trying to kill you. Narrator Colleen Delany perfectly affects the voice of eighth-grade Sherlock Holmes aficionado Ingrid Levin-Hill, who copes with raging hormones, banal schoolwork, and a family strained by pressures both inside the home and out. A steroid-pushing ring is operating in Echo Falls, and Ingrid must find out who are involved and stop them before her brother becomes involved. Escape from an attempted kidnapping is a particularly tension-filled episode, wonderfully portrayed by Delany. Juggling both young and old voices, she shines in scenes between Ingrid, her brother, and her grumpy but lovable Grampy.
