A tragic story
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I read this book when I was 11 and I became intrigued about the late Mary Rose. Me and my little sister used to play Mary Rose all the time--my sister was Mary Rose and I was someone else. I loved Veronica and Sachs' other books about the gang. I wanted to read more about Veronica and Mary Rose and I wrote the author in 1988 asking her if she was going to write another book about the late Mary ROse and she said she didn't think she ever would because in order for this book to work, the late Mary Rose would have to remain a mysterious figure. It was a cool letter from Sachs; hand-written and it included an autographed picture bookmark and her home address in San Francisco on the envelope! She says that it is really up to the reader to decide whether or not the late Mary Rose was a hero. THis book was different from the others in the series in that it takes place nearly three decades after the others, and this book deals with a serious tragedy thirty years before, which traumatized the family. A good book, albeit sad.
