Hero Francis Cassavant has recently returned from World War II hideously disfigured by a grenade, intent on killing erstwhile youth leader Larry LaSalle, now also a wounded hero. In flashback we learn of LaSalle's assault on Nicole, a young girl whom Francis adored. The style and voice is evocative of Salinger's Catcher in the Rye, and Cormier captures the obsessiveness of Francis's mission. A gripping thriller for mature readers. Shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal. (16 yrs +) (Kirkus UK)

A provocative story about the return home of teenage war hero and war victim, Francis Joseph Cassavant, to confront his past - the youth leader he idolized and who betrayed him - and the girl he still loves.
