Book details
Raziel
Description
When Kenyon Baker moves with his parents to Cape Cod, he's resigned himself to a quiet summer concentrating on his photography. But the town has a few surprises for such a sleepy place . . . like Razzle. She is unlike any girl he's ever met, she sees beauty in the strangest things and is totally unselfconscious in front of the camera. But their friendship comes under threat when beautiful, boy-crazy Harley decides she wants to become Ken's model. And when Razzle's mother comes to town, the fireworks really begin - she has more secrets than any daughter would want to know or be able to cope with.
