Whistling in the Dark

Whistling in the Dark by Lesley Kagen is the Boulder
Junction selection for June. You can read about
Leslie and her books at her website. Even though the
book is set in Milwaukee, those of us from other areas
can remember a time when we thought we could just
run all over the neighborhood without worry.

Ten-year old Sally O'Malley lives through the summer of 1959
worried that a child predator will go after her or her little sister,
Troo. With her entire family in crisis, she feels as if she's the one
responsible for their safety.
