Kirkus Reviews, STARRED


At a boarding school in Pennsylvania, a deathbed request from the schools dean brings three former students back to campus, where secrets and betrayals from the past are brought out into the opensecrets that could have a catastrophic effect on the deans eighteen-year-old son.

Told in alternating points of view and time frames, Attachments is the story of best friends Stewart (Goody) Goodman, Sandy (Pick) Piccolo, and Laura Appleby, the girl they both love. The friends meet in 1972 at a boarding school in coal-country Pennsylvania where they encounter Henry Griffin, the school dean, whose genuine fatherly interest and deep human bond with them is so strong that when he has a severe stroke almost twenty years later, he uses what could be his last words ever to call out their names.

Attachments is a puzzleand the only one who knows how all the pieces fit is in a coma. In the process, longtime secrets are unearthed, revelations come out into the open, and Young Chip Griffin is about to learn something he may or may not be able to handle. See more
