Rosie Ferguson is seventeen and ready
to enjoy the summer before her senior
year of high school. She's intelligent-she
aced AP physics; athletic-a former state-
ranked tennis doubles champion; and
beautiful. She is, in short, everything her
mother, Elizabeth, hoped she could be.
The family's move to Landsdale, with
stepfather James in tow, hadn't been as

write a great deal, but you have to core.
You do not have to have a complicated
moral philosphy. But a writer always. Hies,
i think, to be part of the solution, to
undertand a little about life and pass it
on.
