This is a cautionary tale about student drinking, sex, adult affairs, and the consequences of all. It's presented as a mystery. I'm not familiar with Anita Shreve's other work, but I found this story VERY difficult to follow. There are many characters, each of whom tells the story from his or her own point of view. I had trouble keeping track of all of their names...students, parents, school officials, police officers. I listened to the DVD, and at times I felt like giving up. However, the end of the story made the wait worthwhile. If you enjoy her other work, you'll probably like this book.
