Susie Brooks is a nineteen-year-old dance teacher whose main stability through an uncertain childhood was her best friend, Evan Scott, a guitarist with a flair for the business world. Evan’s other best friend is Duncan O’Neil, also a guitarist, but with a flair for attracting women’s attention while hiding his past. When Duncan moves into Evan’s world, he changes the dynamics not only within the band, but within Susie and Evan’s relationship. The three friends find themselves struggling with love, loss, and secret passions during the turbulent Seventies. A Different Drummer is the first of a series of four.

A musical gem,

This review is from: Rehearsal: A Different Drummer (Paperback)
Rehearsal assembles an ensemble cast to tell the story of a rock band, Raucous, that comes of age in the 1970's. The main plot focuses on the relationship between Evan, Susie, and Duncan. Ultimately, Susie pursues a relationship with Duncan, leaving Evan, her childhood friend, to wonder where he fits into her life. There are various subplots involving Kate and Mike, and the band's adventures on the road as an opening act for an established band.
Hunsaker tells an engrossing tale that takes the reader through every facet of the character's lives. There are numerous references to the 1970's that evoke the era. The characterization is "spot on," but the pacing slows the reader down. A satisfying ending leaves the reader looking forward to the sequel.

Compelling and absorbing,
By Dorothy Murphy (Illinois) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rehearsal: A Different Drummer (Paperback)
The characters are so fully developed that you come to identify with them and their hopes and dreams until you are lost in the story. This book is so hard to put down and until you can get back to it, you keep wondering what is Susie going to do about this or that, and what will Duncan say, or Evan, and what is this other guy's angle... I, too, am anxiously waiting for the sequel.
