Summary of this Book... | ||
The setting for this mystery story is in 1968, Chicago. Cassandra Perry moves away from his uncle and aunt’s home to a commune, where she considers all the members her good friends, in the beginning. When two members of the commune are murdered, Cassandra takes it upon herself to find the killers, despite the fact that, however intelligent, she is gullible and inexperienced in life and with interpersonal relationships. Despite her rebelliousness, Cassandra’s aunt and uncle help her along the way, making a deal with her for her to return home once the murders are solved. The details of the mystery and other relationship facts in the plot are up to the reader to find out. The background of Chicago and the time of the story with its racial and political upheavals are skillfully shown, without them overcrowding the plot. Yet, the storytelling especially in the beginning was a little less than desirable. I also found the different and quirky secondary characters to be more interesting and relatable than the main character. The ending of the story, however, is a twist with complications and very well told. | ||
