1953. Ricochet, Washington. Three thirteen-year-old girls embark on
a rabbit-raising project for 4H; a project that will change their
lives and the way they view the quirky inhabitants of their
provincial little town on the Columbia River. Tallulah, Penny, and
Clover are as different from one another as the sour apple soup is
from the sweet butter bean pie Tully's mother concocts at the
Parsley Cafe. Tully is feisty and full of spit and vinegar; Clover,
a privileged snob; and Penny lives a timid existence on the dodgy
edge of town with her alcoholic father. Even so, the three misfits
are thrown together in a scheme to get out of school a week early
by showing their rabbits at the county fair. Spearheaded by Tully,
they form The Byers Avenue Bunny Club and begin a series of
adventures that Tully, aware of the importance of teamwork, hopes
will unify the peculiar group and help them reach their goal. Their
first escapade is a maiden voyage down Black Bottom Creek, during
which they learn little about boating but a great deal about trust
and loyalty. And they'll need every bit of that when they're faced
with abuse and then murder. Do the girls have enough courage to
confront their fears? And will the odd little band of friends live
to look back at the sinister events of the year that changed
everything they were sure of?
