Review

The story is intended for mature audiences. Rain is not allowed to leave camp and be seen by the Winterfolk. Rain is turning 15 and her gift is to spend a day in the city. She lives in a homeless commuity in a tent with her dad. Actually, she lives away from the rest of the Winterpeople, they think a child would bring them bad luck and their encampment would be discovered. King is her friend who takes her to the city, but they get separated. There are posted notices all over their area that the woods are going to be cut down. There is much innuendo embedded within the story. One of the homeless people can make hamesters dance (he places a vibrater under their bucket). King needs money and goes to a club (The Red V... where girls dance on poles). Rain holds some drugs for King. The people want their drugs back, there is a murder, and her dad and their tent dissapear. Then the story turns aroung and has a fantastic ending...

Overall Book Score: good
