Publisher's summary
Like Wisteria Lane, the "perfect" suburban street of Desperate Housewives, all is beautiful and serene, until an accident forces these close neighbors to look beneath the surface. And when their idyllic lives are unexpectedly shattered by a moment that can never be erased or forgotten, their faith in one another, and in themselves, is put to the supreme test.
In this moving, unforgettable story, Barbara Delinsky exquisitely captures the depth and complexity of the human heart as few writers can.

Spanning three decades, Facets is as much a family drama as any I've ever written. My writing style may have changed since 1990, but the heart and soul of my characters have not. Please enjoy Facets as much as I did then - and do now."

During a terrible heat wave in 1991 - the worst in a decade - 10-year-old Anton has been locked in an apartment in the projects, alone, for seven days, without air conditioning or a fan. With no electricity, the refrigerator and lights do not work. Hot, hungry, and desperate, Anton shatters a window and climbs out. Cutting his leg on the broken glass, he is covered in blood when the police find him. Juanita, his mother, is discovered in a crack house less than three blocks away, nearly unconscious and half-naked.

Absorbing story of two families and their longstanding friendship
Two families are the best of friends until a betrayal comes to light and the effect goes rippling through both adults and children with devastating impact. Issues come to light that have their roots in events that took place many years earlier. I found the characters richly drawn and intriguing, although I'm sure that this abridgement cut short a lot of the back story I would have thoroughly enjoyed. This story deserves an unabridged recording. Excellent narration. 3 skips in the audio.
