This one tackles the ever challenging dilemma so many people find themselves in; standing up for what's right, even if it's not the most popular thing to do Good characters, easy to relate to and read, and just one of many from another Anne Schraff series, "Urban Underground".

I think the book was a 4 star because the book was so amazing i say this because i love this authors writing she is always writing the back rounds of each characters where they work what the situation they are in and who helps them solve it and what do they charterer do to solve the situation.
Also the author puts a lot of reasons why the charterer said that and why did he do that kind of action.
