Description

'Bardi pushes a lot of hot buttons' Publishers Weekly Set in Chicago, 1975, Double Take is the story of artsy Rachel Cochrane, who returns from college with no job and confronts the recent death of Bando, one of her best friends. When she runs into Joey, a mutual friend, their conversations take them back into their shared past and to the revelation that Bando may have been murdered. To find out who murdered him, Rachel is forced to revisit her stormy 1960s adolescence, a journey that brings her into contact with her old friends, her old self, and danger. Surprising and haunting, this is an insightful reminiscence of a time of naivety, danger and renewal. PRAISE FOR ABBY BARDI 'compelling ... evocative ...
