Sixteen-year-old Gail is living the upper-class suburban life when she begins receiving terrifying phone calls and notes in her locker. And the calls keep coming. When she's attacked by the town's golden boy everyone refuses to take action against him and his powerful family. A frightening drama that deals with heavy teen issues and the idea of justice (or lack thereof) from bestselling author Richard Peck.
*''No one can quarrel with the question the book raises about why the law protects the rapist rather than the victim. This certainly deserves to be read and discussed.''*--(starred review) School Library Journal
Won the Edgar Allan Poe Mystery Award, 1978 / ALA Best Book for Young Adults
