Anything for Jane

by Cheryl Mendelson

Jane Braithwaite seems to have it all: eighteen, gorgeous, promising music career, adoring parents, lives in a nice neighborhood, etc. But the family’s home in Morningside Heights is full of turmoil because Jane is the moodiest, most disagreeable teenager on the planet.

What will it take to bring peace to the Braithwaite home? And who will pay the price?

With several seemingly unrelated sub-plots, quirky characters, and brainy narration, Mendelson creates an oddly compelling read.
