And it's never adequately explained where Derek, who says he wants to be a veterinarian, learned all his hip-hop dance steps. Perhaps he's been training with DMX's dogs.

Still, the novel offers a parade of diverting characters, nearly all of whom talk about sex constantly, and a comforting sense that no truly upsetting events lie in wait. Faith Lavelle, the dead twin's grown sister, seems to mean Tory no good. But then her veterinarian boyfriend gives her a puppy, and the evil twin becomes a wonderful woman...
