Book Reviews of An Acquaintance with Darkness
Book Review: A great book even if the characters last name is PIGBUSH!
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, we can forgive Mrs.Rinaldi for giving Emily a funny last name because this was an excellant book!! Lincoln's assination, Grave Robbing, Lies and Deception and Hangings!!! And poor Emily in the midst of it all!! I highly recommend this book.
Summary of An Acquaintance with Darkness
Chaos reigns in Washington, D.C., after President Lincoln's assassination. But for fourteen-year-old Emily Pigbush, the Union's turmoil is nothing compared to her own struggle. Sent to live with her uncle Valentine after her mother's untimely death, Emily realizes that her best friend's mother was one of John Wilkes Booth's accomplices. And even worse, she suspects that her uncle is breaking the law.
