I'm going to assume from your question that you have not
yet read the novel. I want to give you a glimpse of the main characters but not tell
too much, as it would spoil one of the best parts of the plot. I highly encourage you
to read this book. It is definitely worth your time.
The
protagonists of the novel are Jane Jerome and Buddy
Walker. Both are 16 years old. At the very beginning of the story, Buddy is involved
with a group of teens who vandalize Jane's house and harm her sister (the premise of the
story). Ironically, the two end up in a romantic relationship which of course, excludes
this major piece of information.
Harry Flowers is the
ringleader of the group of boys who trash Jane's home. He is rich, spoiled, smart, and
bored. These qualities combined most often with alcohol create nothing but
trouble.
The Avenger is the neighbor of the Jerome's who
witnesses the vandalization. His identity is left somewhat of a mystery, but his role
in the story is suggested by his surname. He plans to personally avenge the four boys
involved in the crime at the Jerome's house.
