Romantic Adventure Library #947

"Tell Me, Dad" is a quietly gripping tale from Romantic Adventure Library #947 (1981), where a teenage boy’s desperate ruse to expose his mother’s mistreatment of his father takes a shocking turn. When Mike’s staged kidnapping leads his mother, Mary, to Las Vegas, she witnesses her husband, Lou Brenton, in a drunken state—and learns a truth far more complex than she ever imagined. The story unfolds with emotional precision, drawing sharp contrasts between appearances and reality, all rendered in the clean, typeset lettering of the era.
