Runaway Sensation
By Mark Eisman
A midnight phone call and a mysterious pyramid of books on the floor of the public library are an ominous warning to Eva the library director. The group 1-800-PHONE-HOME is after her for sheltering teenagers who have left home. A group of parents has surrounded the library whose past may be hidden in a little known collaboration between Nobel laureate Sinclair Lewis and King Kong’s object of affection, Fay Wray.
