(2) YA In this companion to The Rock and the River, fourteen-year-old narrator Maxie pines for the day she will be given responsibilities in Chicago's Black Panthers; she's sure that finding the traitor in their midst is her ticket to the inner circle. Maxie's voice provides readers with a ground-level view of an important historical moment but also of the nascent sociopolitical zeal of adolescence.
