About
the Book
On the surface, everything seems wonderful in
Jill’s life. She has a lot of friends, a great family, and she’s a
shoo-in for treasurer in the eighth-grade student council elections. But when a
local paper prints a story about her father’s indictment in a
jewelry-smuggling ring, Jill’s perfect life starts to come apart at the
seams. As she endures the whispers at school and her father’s absence,
Jill struggles to face the reality that he may not be the man she thought he
was.
LINDA LEOPOLD STRAUSS has written several books for young readers,
