Oprah Book Club� Selection, September 1996: The horror of losing a child is somehow made worse when the case goes unsolved for nearly a decade, report s Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel columnist Jacquelyn Mitchard in this searing f irst novel. In it, 3-year-old Ben Cappadora is kidnapped from a hotel lobby where his mother is checking into her 15th high school reunion. His disapp earance tears the family apart and invokes separate experiences of anguish, denial, and self-blame. Marital problems and delinquency in Ben's older br other (in charge of him the day of his kidnapping) ensue. Mitchard depicts the family's friction and torment--along with many gritty realities of fami ly life--with the candor of a journalist and compassion of someone who has seemingly been there. International publishing and movie rights sold fast o n this one: It's a blockbuster.
