This makes this particular novel a little bit darker than the first two. This novel has more of a dark undertone throughout the story in the form of homophobia and the possibility of child abuse. We see the tale, not only through the eyes of Syd and Maddie, but also through Henry and his friends Dorothy and Buddy. Some of the secondary characters in books one and two become more main characters in this one. As with those first two novels, the reader finds a good deal of love, laughter, and fun. This book continues the story of Syd, Maddie, Henry, and all the other wonderful folks I’ve met in the first two books with the addition of a few new people. Yesterday I finished reading the third and (possibly?) final book in the series called Goldenrod. For the past week I’ve been privileged to be able to enjoy reading about the people in the town of Jericho through the books in the “Jericho Series” by Ann McMan.
