Synopsis: In the wanting months of the second World War, a group of children discover an earthen tunnel in their neighborhood. Throughout the summer of 1944--until one father forbids it--the subterranean space becomes their "secret garden," where the friends play games and tell stories. Six decades later, beneath a house on the same land, construction workers uncover a tin box containing two skeletal hands, one male and one female. As the discovery makes national news, the friends come together once again, to recall their days in the tunnel for the detective investigating the case. Is the truth buried among these aging friends and memories? This impromptu reunion causes long-simmering feelings to bubble to the surface. Mild-mannered Alan, stuck in a passionless marriage, begins flirting with Daphne, a glamorous widow who was once his teenage sweetheart. Michael, lonely after the death of his wife, considers contacting his estranged father, who sent Michael to live with an aunt after his mother vanished in 1944. Lewis begins remembering details about his Uncle James, an army private who once accompanied the Children into the tunnels, and who later disappeared. In THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, Rendell brilliantly shatters our assumptions about age, showing that the choices people make--and the emotions behind them--remain as potent in late life as they were in youth"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Mystery Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Mystery Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waipahu Public Library Adult Fiction Rendell Checked In Add Copy to MyList
