I enjoyed everything except the end. The part where all the boys have sex with Bev I really did NOT like and did NOT need to read. Nor did I enjoy the part where Patrick jerks Henry off. These sexual acts involving 11 and 12 year olds were unnecessary. The suspense was good, as was the world building.
