About the book

**Sixteen-year-old Gail is living the upper-class suburban life when she begins receiving terrifying phone calls and notes in her locker**. And the calls keep coming. When she's attacked by the town's golden boy everyone refuses to take action against him and his powerful family. **A frightening drama that deals with heavy teen issues and the idea of justice *(or lack thereof)* from bestselling author Richard Peck.** ***''No one can quarrel with the question the book raises about why the law protects the rapist rather than the victim. This certainly deserves to be read and discussed.''*--(starred review) School Library Journal** ***Won the Edgar Allan Poe Mystery Award, 1978 / ALA Best Book for Young Adults***
