When Dad Killed Mom

(2) YA After Jeremy, twelve, and Jenna, fourteen, learn that their father has shot and killed their mother, disturbing bits and pieces of the truth emerge. Although the story's roll call of sensational events sometimes takes on a melodramatic quality, the telling is undeniably gripping, and readers will find believable the siblings' efforts to sort through the truth about their parents and begin to build a new life.
