About this Book

Print Excerpt


"Well -- "

"Maybe I'll like him better when he doesn't have shopping bags scattered all over the lawn." For Liz Garfield this was downright placatory, and Bobby was satisfied. The day had come to a very acceptable ending after all. "Goodnight, birthday boy."

"Goodnight, Mom."

She went out and closed the door. Later that night -- much later -- he thought he heard her crying in her room, but perhaps that was only a dream.
