Customer Reviews

Good but the conclusion was too neat.

This book was good but the conclusion was too neat. Also it didn't make sense that Merry was able to throw the big, heavy stone. But the part were Merrie ran away and had to hide in the woods was good. This story was about 12 year old Merrie, a deaf girl on Martha's Vineyard in 1880, who must prove herself inoccent when she is one of four people without alibis on the night of a murder.
