The theme of this story is "do what you have to do". Rebecca and Mickey move to Florida due to complications with MIckey's voice, Mrs. Stone wants a book written about herself so that she can reconnect with her daughter, Rebecca tells Mrs. Stone about the FBI probe so that Bash can get the top medical help he needs, and Cecil's brother turns him in the the FBI, and on it goes. But when you are reading the book, it all makes so much sense. My only complaint was some of the loose ends...what happened to Rebecca's parents that her mother wasn't answering the phone, but at least the story of Rebecca, Mickey, and Bash had a happy ending. It was a very quick read and I really think it would make a great movie...
