“Attachments”
by Jeff Arch
At a boarding school in Pennsylvania, a deathbed request from the school’s dean brings three former students back to campus, where secrets and betrayals from the past are brought out into the open — secrets that could have a catastrophic effect on the dean’s 18-year-old son.
Told in alternating points of view and time frames, “Attachments” is the story of two best friends and the girl they both love. The book is a puzzle — and the only one who knows how all the pieces fit is in a coma. Revelations come out into the open, and someone is about to learn something he may or may not be able to handle.
