After the carnival night, it was kind of like a regular summer for Hattie, except that now she was always with Adam and at the carnival during the day. She was at the carnival alot because she had made a new friend. Hattie and Adam became great friends and one day Adam wanted to go upstairs in Hattie's house to see Miss Angle. He liked Miss Angle a lot, and when they went in her room, Adam saw Angle and a guy, Henry, in the bed together. Then when Hattie gets a call from Nana, Nana says Adam is missing. Read this book to see what happens to Adam.

I recommend this book to anyone. It is a great book that is easy to read. It is very easy to follow and is interesting. It isn't totally exciting at every moment, but is still a good book. I hope you read this book because I really enjoyed it and I hope you do to. It is an amazing story, so read it.
