| This
is a disturbing book about upper class kids losing control and following
a leader who gets his kicks prancing around town. The most severe action
occurs when a home is trashed and a teenager who comes home while the trashing
is in process is thrown down the cellar stairs. The plot thickens as a
remorseful follower of the trashing begins to date the sister of the fall
victim. This is not a pretty story. It's plausible and as such is disturbing
to think how haunting the consequences can be when a group loses control. |
