Book Description

Only Megan knows that feral cats live in the field that's about to be bulldozed. An odd man offers to help her save them, but there's something not quite right about his offer. Then, after witnessing a car accident, Megan begins receiving disturbing notes. Not knowing who to trust, Megan will have to rely on her wits in order to save the cats-and herself-from the treacherous adventures that lie ahead.

"A great story with intriguing plot twists and plenty of action." (School Library Journal)

Don't Tell Anyone by Peg Kehret
Dutton's Children's Books - New York

Imagine yourself in the position of being responsible of frequent, pleasant, and disappointing situations. Imagine how hard it is to stick up for your community, nature, and even criminals. Megan Perk, lived life like any ordinary kid, until she discovered a variety of cats that needed her help.
This was where everything went wrong. After her discovery of the cats, Megan wanted to obviously help them, so every morning; she would visit them and feed them cat food. The only thing that Megan didn't know was that the field was soon going to be bulldozed and would be constructed into an apartment area, and she didn't want the cats to be bulldozed either. This was also the field that Megan witnessed a car crash that gradually turned into a hit and run murder trial making it even more difficult and insecure for her to visit. Knowing about the murder trial and sticking up also made Megan more courageous and responsible.
When the construction workers started working on the field, Megan started complaining to stop the bulldozing and help the cats although she knew not the talk to strangers. Unfortunately, the person that she was talking to was pretending to be the boss of the company, known as Brice Colby, and pretending to help the cats in which Megan didn't know. This person was faking to be the boss because he didn't want the others to know about saving the cats, to make Megan disappointed and more stressed. A few days later when Megan was casually feeding the cats, she discovered a threatening note saying, "If you want the cats to live, then don't tell anyone." This note left Megan with another situation and concern.
When Megan encountered the fake Brice again at a balloon festival, she talked about the note to him, this filled him with anger because he wrote the note. His punishment was unpredictable to Megan that kept me on the edge of my seat Horror filled my mind and pity for the little girl. Megan returned safe, and learned never to talk to anyone she didn't know. The cats were given shots and adopted into nice, warm, healthy homes. As usual, most stories end happy, which I like, but I didn't like how Peg Kehret did not conclude what happened to Shane (the fake Brice) what happened to the person in the car accident, and the criminal who hit the car.
Don't Tell Anyone is a very fascinating book that you cannot put down. It is a simple book to read, and if you admire mysteries, then this is the perfect book for you. Fifth to seventh graders should have no problem reading this; and lastly, you'll love it!

A Review by Cory

This book was fun and easy to read, almost at every time there was something important happening....You can't really lose attention to this book or you get lost fast...but its not like you would lose interest anyways.
In this book there is really nothing that I hate. I can't really talk bad about it. To a person who likes to actually read I personally think that you would not find anything wrong with this book. It has conflicts, dialogue, action, it has everything. So the least thing I can say is ENJOY.
This truly is one of very many good books!.

Domestic life, in Frederick Busch's 17 elegant stories, is like a cracked windshield: one tiny ping of gravel can, in time, fissure the whole thing. In "Machias," a man remembers the exact moment his marriage ruptured; he and his urbane wife were listening to an old curmudgeon, and each came away with an utterly different understanding of the tale, and the man. "I think it possible, as I look back when I dare, that our conversation in the shabby, lantern-lit dining room of the old man's house in Machias was the largest moment of my life. It went on. It is going on." Busch's characters can't help but spill their secrets, and they're pretty grumpy about it. In the ironically titled "The Talking Cure," a young boy works for a veterinarian who happens to be having an affair with his mother. The boy concludes, simply, "It's a story I try not to tell."

Don't Tell Anyone closes with "A Handbook for Spies." This long novella follows the life of a young, and then not-so-young, man whose parents escaped the Nazis in 1930s Paris. He is a professor in love with a married woman (a girl, really) who becomes a repository for his angst. With its dead-on campus milieu, its guilt-ridden sex, its inescapable ghosts of the past, it closely recalls Busch's 1997 masterpiece, Girls. And here, too, Busch comes as near as he ever does to delivering a manifesto on love: "Truly, he thought on one of his icy drives, Kafka is the patron saint of families. He had impressed a woman in graduate school with this observation. She had dated him, and it was not impossible, he thought, that Franz Kafka, snug as a bug in a bed, was the reason. To love, Kafka taught, was to be suspicious of what you must pay for the love." There exists no finer summing-up of Busch's own writing. --Claire Dederer

Book Description

Not since Raymond Carver has the soul of the American family been plumbed as eloquently or as poignantly. The hungers of love and the fear of time drive the men and women, sons and daughters in these stories to speak. Frederick Busch renders precisely the need to connect and shows us the ways--funny, tender, and heartbreaking--in which connections, in spite of love, often fail. In "Heads" a mother is haunted by her own past when her daughter faces an accusation that could send her to jail. In "Malvasia" a daughter gives her bereaved father the courage to go on living. A father suffers over his inability to save his grown son from heartbreak in "Passengers." "The Joy of Cooking" is a brilliant portrait of a failed marriage. Called a "first-rate American storyteller" and "master craftsman" by the New York Times Book Review, Busch brings us into the achingly familiar lives of people caught between the need to tell a story and the fear of speaking out.

5 out of 5 stars Masterpiece of Modern Short Stories.......2001-10-17

In this book, Frederick Busch once again shows an incredible mastery of the short story as a vehicle to convey the deepest and most intimate personal feelings, even through the ephemeral nature of a short story as opposed to a novel. Yet, Busch has a talent shown by only a few present day short story writers. His ability to convey human feeling and emotion with the most elegant constructions is clearly demonstrated with this collection.

The intensity with which Busch presents his emotionality is enhanced by his incredibly insightful portrayal of the processes of the human mind. His stories are so rich with the deepest of our hidden thoughts that they become almost palpable. In these stories, Busch portrays highly intelligent people working with personal intimacies that are highly personal, yet so universal at the same time.

Particularly attractive is his "novella" in the book, "Handbook For Spies." Not only is the story captivatingly well written, but it is a virtual social commentary beyond the basics of the plot he lays out. In addition, his implication seems to be, that in one way or another, we are all 'spies' in some sense or another, or at least we act like them. In an editorial moment, his comment that Philip Roth is "careless about his character's lives ... he's frivolous about them..." portrays an unusually striking ability for Busch to develop his characters in a more mature emotional manner than he feels that Roth does.

Any person who enjoys the short story genre will not be disappointed by this book by Busch. For those with a high level of sensitivity toward human introspection, this book is a true revelation.

5 out of 5 stars "A Genius for Storytelling".......2001-07-28

[Note: This review was originally published October 15, 2000, in the Seattle Times ...

For a volume thick with stories, "Don't Tell Anyone" is a quietly ironic title. The characters talk -- to friends or strangers, to themselves, even to ghosts -- trying to make sense of things and relieve their isolation. Like the protagonist in the opening story, "Heads," the characters throughout Frederick Busch's 20th book of fiction are filled with "half-remembered words, tatters of statement, halves of stories, the litter of alibis, confessions, supplications, and demand."

Talking sometimes closes more doors than it opens, or taps into buried rages that erupt in threats of violence. As if improved expression could solve the problem, characters correct their own and each other's phrasing. But language has a life of its own, confusing and concealing even when a speaker is being careful or terribly honest, and what one tells oneself can be the most treacherous story of all. The title urges silence for strong reasons. Yet secrets cut the characters off from people they love, as well as from themselves.

Busch's world is problematic, but his stories awaken deep joy in the reader. In the gorgeous, heart-rending story "Malvasia," a woman brings all sorts of comforts to her recently widowed father, who wants nothing except to believe that when night falls his wife will greet him in the room they used to share. In "Timberline," the narrator's flashback to a dangerous hike with his father won't let the reader go, and this memory is only one dimension of his gripping present crisis. Some of an old man's haunting, half-realized wisdom in "Machias" comes from once having held together a broken telephone wire in a blizzard, so that a doctor could be called to help birth a baby. In the old man's recollection, the message passed through his veins.

Most of the stories are about the things that happen to everyone -- a love lost, a child in trouble, a parent understood -- but that never come with directions or guiding principles attached. The rules and regulations of bureaucracies, on the other hand, are plentiful.

In "The Baby in the Box," the legislature controls the police department budget, so the hapless and terrified night dispatcher at the station, Ivanhoe Krisp, is the only person available when a midnight caller says a newborn was left in a dumpster. Our hero has to ride a poorly maintained, not-at-all-trusty SUV through the darkness to the rescue, and his wrenching question at the end ("Who ý would throw a person away?") won't be answered by any bureaucrat.

Nor, apparently, by any God. The book's title could be a mischievous deity's instructions to the universe: Don't tell anyone what things mean. Don't even tell people who they are. Is Krisp a hero like the great Scots warrior Ivanhoe, or just a flaky snack for the hungry night? When the narrator in "Timberline" has an amazing conversation with a stranger, has his life changed, or hasn't it? "Nobody tells him which."

Sometimes knowledge arrives, although in bizarre forms. In "Bob's Your Uncle" a psychotic young man ("wily and odd-looking, very large and a little arrested-sounding, and coated with the grime of the world") drops in on long-ago friends of his parents and won't leave. His misery and menace become a coded message to the host about himself.

Busch's understanding and compassion are generous and energetic. So is his fascination with how life goes wrong and how irrationally, impossibly, we keep trying to make things right. Each of his very different characters speaks in a unique yet natural voice. His plots move like good horses with expert riders -- a touch here, a subtle shift of weight there -- through dauntingly broken terrain. His phrasing is often brilliant; his syntax does effortless heavy lifting; his humor is a constant, unexpected grace and delight.

"Don't Tell Anyone" is a hugely satisfying book, and its author (this isn't news, but do tell everyone) is a genius of a storyteller.

5 out of 5 stars Another First Rate Book by Busch!.......2000-10-03

This collection of sixteen short stories and a novella is yet another first-rate effort by Frederick Busch. His characters have the kind of humanity that make them seem deeply real, with lives so flawlessly imagined that you can be swept away by them. Even if the short stories weren't so good (and believe me, they are excellent), it would be worth reading this book just for the novella "A Handbook for Spies." The longer format allows Busch to delve more thoroughly into his subject matter and characters, thus expanding the protagonist Willie's life in a way not possible in a short story. We are treated to Willie's loves, his fears, his peculiar relationship with his Holocaust survivor parents and their peculiar relationship, and what it all means to a man who escaped service in the Vietnam War.

Busch writes the kind of dialogue you might wish you encountered in your own conversations: sharp, witty, wise, intriguing. His language is impeccable, with descriptions so memorable I sometimes stopped reading in admiration, to savor the words. Busch can be as funny as he can be melancholy, and every last story in this book has tremendous emotional range.

              From the supplier: Distributors of Asian spices in the US are avoiding the use of the word 'curry' in their marketing efforts because of the stigma against it as perceived by Americans. For instance, Tamarind Tree Ltd. uses ethnic names and descriptions in their display shelves instead of labeling the variety of their spices with 'curry'. Inspite of this problem, the market for Indian and Thai foods is expected to grow by 15 to 20% every year.

                  4 out of 5 stars Wonderfully Sexy Love Story.......2005-12-24

                  I love this story. I like the adventure and how the two main character slowly fall in love and learn to trust each other over the space of the book. Amanda Scott's knowledge of the period paints such vivid pictures that her readers feel they're a part of the action, and the underlying sexual tension will leave you squirming in your chair. Amanda Scott delivers a sensuous, humorous, adventurous plot. Isobel is a good heroine--pretty spunky and genuinely good-hearted. You fall in love with Micheal from the get go. I am once again in awe at the brilliant way that this author can weave fiction into and around the rich historical background that she sets her characters into.

                  If you're looking for a romance novel that is character driven and that has everything necessary for a good, engrossing read, you can't go very wrong with "Prince of Danger" Prince of Danger is is not lust at first sight book but a well formed love story. There are interesting plot twists and we get to know several secondary characters well. The secondary characters are not boring. I love both Isobel's sisters and brother in law. I'm always looking for a diffrent plot line than most romance books have. Prince of Danger has that and more.

                  PRINCE OF DANGER by Amanda Scott
                  November 13, 2005

                  Amazon rating 3/5

                  "Introduced in Lord of the Isles as a willful twelve-year old, Lady Isobel Macleod is now nineteen and has vowed never to marry. After living with her father until the age of twelve, and then moving in with her brother-in-law Hector and her sister Cristina, Isobel has concluded that women are considered men's property, and she refuses to be a part of it.

                  In July 1379, as Isobel rides bareback on the lands outside her father's home at Castle Chalamine, she comes across a band flogging a solitary man. She decides to save his life, but is discovered, tied up and thrown into a cave, along with Michael St. Clair, whom she was trying to rescue. To his astonishment, Isobel finds a way to free herself of her bonds, and saves them both. She's not the typical female in medieval Scotland. She's independent and wild, constantly disobeying her father's and brother-in-law's orders. Now, St. Clair has to deal with this uncontrollable young woman, as they flee the villains, led by his cousin Waldron." - Complete review at BookLoons - M. Lofton.

                  I didn't like this one as much as the previous installment, but it was still fun to see the characters I got to know. I'm giving this one 3 stars.

                  5 out of 5 stars exhilarating medieval romance .......2005-10-25

                  In 1379, in the Scottish Highlands, Lady Isobel Macleod is riding by herself as she does every morning to escape the confines of her dad's home, which she is visiting, when she comes across several thugs whipping a man. She tells them to cease or face the wrath of her father. Instead they bind her and Michael leaving them temporarily in a cave while searching for the rest of the lady's party. Isobel frees them and takes Michael to her home, that of her oldest sister Christina and brother in law Hector "The Ferocious" Maclean (see LORD OF THE ISLES). .

                  Hector informs Michael St. Clair, brother to Henry about to be named Prince of the Isles, that he will wed Isobel. Michael agrees only if Isobel says yes. Isobel initially refuses, but changes her mind and they wed. They go to his castle where his mother does not accept his new bride. While falling in love, the newlyweds search for the treasure his father mentioned before dying, a treasure that the Kirk of Rome, Pope Urban wants.

                  PRINCE OF DANGER is an exhilarating medieval romance that stars a fabulous lead female who takes charge in a crisis and a male who knows when to let her lead. The story line is action-packed as the duet struggle to elude his odious cousin Waldron and never slows down when they seek the hidden treasure. Fans of fast-paced historical tales starring an intrepid heroine and a courageous champion will want to read Amanda Scott's latest fourteenth century Highland thriller.

                  5 out of 5 stars The Return of an old friend.......2001-07-26

                  I first read this series when I was still in grade school, back when the title's were the Prince's Players, Tournement and Tower and City By The Sea (does that make me old or what?) They were the only stories that I would read over and over and over and ---well you get the point. I loved reading about Randal, Lys and Walter,their story seem more realistic to me b/c the charcter's actually had consequences for their actions: like Randal's ever present scar from when he broke a majory wizardry rule in order to...(read the first one and find out) When they went out of print and my library sold them I was crushed (though I did find #2 and #3 at a used book store a year or two ago.) I'm glad that once more the series is back in print and other people can journey with the trio like I once did.

                  5 out of 5 stars For All Fantasy Lovers.......2001-04-18

                  I bought the first of this series for my 8-year-old. After reading the first one myself I had to buy the others. I hope the fifth one comes out soon. If you like magic and adventure, you'll like this series--no matter what your age.

                  5 out of 5 stars An outstanding book in an outstanding series.......2000-10-02

                  This book was originally published ten years ago under the title The Prince's Players. It hasn't lost any of its freshness or originality since its first publication. It was great then, both as a stand-alone book and as part of the series. (The Circle of Magic books tell one story from beginning to end if you read them in order.) All of them can be read by themselves, though, without losing the magic, the charm, and the characters.

                  I'm glad that these books are coming back into print, so another generation of kids can get their first taste of fantasy. There's lots hidden inside of them for older readers and more experienced fantasy readers too. This is a series that isn't just for kids.

                  Anyway, in this book Randal (the hero) learns more about what magic means, both to himself and to others. The overall thrust is of self-discovery, personal responsibility, and other positive values, told in the midst of an exciting action-packed adventure. Violence, spies, good twins, bad twins, and theatre all mixed, with the hero making choices that matter. Good book.
