Very good, of it's kind, until the final act, when the combined forces of coincidence and implausibility conspire to throttle the reader/viewer's good will. The villain is a truly depraved soul who commits the one completely unforgiveable crime in America.

I can't recommend this one for many reasons. Foremost, when I attend a movie, or read a book that leaves me feeling like a deer in the headlights not quite comprehending what is happening, I shake my head with chagrin.

I'm not sure what this was about. A young boy who doesn't know his father? A young boy who has a disjointed mother? A young boy with a deformed hand? A young boy who steals? A young boy who wears a glove to hide his deformity? A young boy who is charmed by a poor girl claiming show more the gypsies will come for him?

The ending was mysterious and disjointed.

This was a waste of time and I'm glad I only paid .25 for it at a local library sale. show less

This would be an ok book for a child. It seemed to end awfully abruptly though.
