would anyone know the name of a book w/ this discriptions? The book had a main character -- Adain... it was about the relationship between he and his siblings. His parents had died... maybe in a car accident or a fire. the book was cover was red... and the spine had gold letters. I know this is not much to go on... but maybe some could point me in the right direction... Also, the book would have been published prior to 1980 --- maybe even 1970 -- Thanks a bunch!
