The Body of Christopher Creed-Journal#1.
As the story begins, we meet Torey Adams a kid from Steepleton. Torey begins telling about the two days Christopher Creed disappearance. It was Sunday and church had ended, but the reverend had asked every one to stay seated because the Creeds would like to say a few words. Torey was seated with his parents across from his fiend Alex. As the Creeds began to speck about their son's disappearance and thanking everyone for their support on trying to find him, Torey begins to remember that Chris was supposedly at the library the day of his disappearance. Mr. Ames, the principal of Steepleton High School, got a letter from Chris after school when downloading his email. At first everyone that saw the letter thought it was a runaway note, but by Friday everyone was saying it was a suicide note written by Chris. Saturday, all the grown ups went to the woods to search for Chris, but found nothing. When the Creeds were finished talking everyone was allowed to leave. .
The next day Mrs. Creed was going around school posting up posters. They had a picture of Chris and other info. Torey was walking in to the cafeteria when Ali, a friend of his, stopped him. She asked him to go out to talk, but Torey doesn't know if to say yes or no, because of her bad reputation.
Personal Response: .
As I began to read " The Body of Christopher Creed," I thought it would be another stupid mystery story about some one dying. But after getting to the third chapter the book got really interesting. Carol Plum-Ucci, the author, gets you picturing every thing that is going on in the story from the beginning and I hope till the end. She started kind of lame, but then got more detailed with the story. The story was set in Steepleton, Southern New Jersey. A made up city by the author for this book. And a little bit of information is that this was Carol Plum-Ucci very first novel. .
