At fifteen, Andrea Cranston has everything—good friends, a loving family, a summer job, a boyfriend. But her world falls apart in an instant—she is raped. Not only is she shocked by the physical violation, she is hurt by her family's reaction as well. Now, when Andrea needs their support more than ever, her mother is silent and distant, her father angry, her friends uneasy and uncomfortably curious. Never has Andrea felt more alone. Somehow she must come to terms with the ordeal and struggle to raise her self-image.

Gloria D. Miklowitz
Author · 18 books
With a relentless concern about contemporary issues and problems that affect teenagers, Gloria D. Miklowitz (USA, b. 1927) examined such topics as rape, suicide, teen marriage, divorce, AIDS, sexual abuse, and racial prejudice in her novels. She helped teen readers look at underground militias, vigilantism, religious cults, steroid use among high school athletes, and the effects of nuclear war. She enabled readers to view the famous battle of Masada from both sides. She also wrote nonfiction on a variety of subjects, from earthquakes and raccoons to President Harry Truman, civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., and tennis star Tracy Austin.
