Tall Grass, A Novel

I recently read the book Tall Grass, A Novel by Sandra Dallas. In this book the Japanese were sent to internment camps. In the book Susan Reddick ends up getting raped and murdered and everyone was blaming the Japs for it. Why everyone was blaming the Japs is because nothing like this had ever happened until the Japs came to Ellis. Then Mary Stroud hired a girl named Daisy to help her with the house. Daisy had been pregnant. Mary and Rennie who is Mary Stouds daughter were driving when they got stuck in the truck so they got out and started walking back to there house. When they had gotten home they new something was up when they saw the sheet pinned to the close line by one close pin. Daisy was suppose to put the clothes out on the line. But when Mary and Rennie got back to there house the clothes were on the ground in the dirt and the clothes basket was flipped over. At this time Daisy had her baby and she named it Amy Elizabeth. So when Mary and Rennie got home they went down to the barn. When they got down to the barn they saw Daisy holding Amy Elizabeth closer and closer to her chest because Danny Spano was holding a beet knife up to Daisy. Danny Spano kept saying that he wants his baby and if Daisy wouldn't give it to him she was going to kill her. So Daisy killed Danny Spano, and Mary told Daisy and Carol to go ahead and go home so they did. Mary took the blame for Danny Spano's death. The ending of the book is the best part. I thought that this was the most amazing book i've ever read. I would recamend that you read this book; I would give this 5 stars.
