Just when I am ready to quit reading Grace Hill books, there are a hundred of them after all, I stumble on another one with surprising depth and lots of turns. This is a book about two young men who get blamed by the whole town for a crime they didn't commit, but it is really about their families and their friends as well. One young man leaves town because he is blamed for a bank discrepancy, and an older friend follows him to bring him back. What befalls them makes it impossible for them to get back or get in touch with anyone so the town views their absence as guilt. There is more romance than usual in this book also, which I personally like. If you like a book where everyone is settled tidily at the end of the book, this is not for you. For instance what happened to Myra and Joyce's father? But this is an interesting book and a little atypical for Ms Hill.
