It is a true story of Alice Sebold, the author, and how, when in college, she was raped. It expands from the night it happened, flashing back to her childhood, and continues through to the trial. I loved this book, and will definately reread it. I recommend it to girls fourteen and older. It might be too graphic for younger kids. ”
