her sister, Amanda, and her brother-in-law, Will.

COMMENTARY: I enjoyed this story quite a bit.  I like the 
manner in which the author builds it up.  I like the 
characters, in particular Kristina.  She seems very

me about the author's ability.  I also enjoyed the dialogue, 
especially the conversations between Kristina and Amanda.  I 
think that most of you should enjoy this story.
