OLDER FICTION
Rapp, Adam

The Children and the Wolves

(2) YA Bounce--rich, bright, cynical, and manipulative--masterminds the kidnapping of a three-year-old girl, assisted by "chuckleheads" Wiggins and Orange. The tension of this unsettling novel, related in alternating voices, resides in whether or not Wiggins will act on his growing unease at what the trio is doing. Rapp creates distinct voices for the four characters, and the tale has a frenzied power.
