Produktbeschreibung

During 1955, after Brown v Board of Education had sent ripples across the United States, neighborhoods in St. Lopuis flooded with change and people's predujudices surfaced. Stories of ordinary people's strife will pull at your heart. Everyone is caught in a whirlwind of crime when holdups, and murder overtake the mom and pop businesses on Park Avenue. There was the fire at Miss Pansy's Dimestore and the quest of fourteen-year-old Becky Bartlett. Someone, maybe a friend, colleague, or one of Becky's brothers, is leaking information about cash and drugs.

After a brutal holdup, Becky flees from Freddie Payne who had tried to rape her. Soon he starts calling on the telephone, and she realizes that he always knows her whereabouts. Nothing can stop the demise of the neighborhood, but can Becky outwit Freddie Payne?
