The summer of 1977 was preceded by a sub zero freezing winter followed by a boiling summer with temperatures of 3 digits most of the time. This leads to a very volatile summer. Nora Lopez a 17 year old living with her abusive 16 year old brother Hector and their mother Mima in a small apt. with no air condition in of the many Burroughs of New York City. Growing up I had heard of the black out in NYC and the Son of Sam serial Murders. Reading this book brought me much closer to this time in history. A quick read that I had a hard time laying down. I would recommend this book to any age, teen up to 100.
