She hated the big gloomy house she was to live in. She hated meeting her long-lost and highly eccentric relatives. And most of all, she hated knowing that she was safe in America while her parents faced the guns of WWII in Europe.But a year has passed now, and Flissy has grown to love her life in Bottlebay -- and especially Derek, the boy the Bathburns have adopted. Then a man claiming to be Derek's true father arrives, and soon he's asking all sorts of strange questions. Flissy has a nose for trouble. Has Derek's new father come to take him away . . . or is there something even more sinister happening in Bottlebay, Maine?
Customer Reviews
Absolutely fabulous
This book is horribly sad as you yearn for Fliss' chance at love and redemption, completely and utterly romantic, and very hopeful all at the same time. Stone's writing through Fliss reveals what we all really feel in our heads, as she goes to the ups-and-downs of life itself to the smallest specimens of everyday existence. But, if you are a desperate romantic, beware that the ending for Fliss and Derek is bittersweet, and if you are intertwined with their relationship as I am, will make you cry in despair.
