Ivan and Polly Farrell have two bright and talented children. Eight-year-old Charlie has his father's scientific mind. Amanda, eleven, possesses the unusual strength and determination that has made her a promising gymnast.

"Brilliant...explosive...heart-rending."--Chicago Tribune
"Compelling power...tenderness and perceptiveness."--The New York Times
