9-year-old Michele stumbles on a secret being kept by the adults in his small Italian village. He struggles with his sense of what is right vs what the adults are telling him.
My sister brought this over on the aeroplane with her and considering she grabbed it without knowing what it was, it was very good. Believable in everyway. If your sister is visiting you, ask her to bring it.
I really enjoyed this book; it is very gripping and quick to read. At times however, it was a little predictable, and not as detailed/developed as I would like.
