The book Death in the Freezer toll about the ordinary family Shore. When Ellen was six years old, her brother Al was born. Ellen doesn't like that because her parents found Al more important than her. When Ellen was twenty-nine, she was a nurse. Her brother Al was a famous rock star. Ellen had very little money. And of course her brother was very rich. She thought that if her brother died, that she get all of the money that belongs to him. When Al went on a tour, he asked Ellen for good drugs. Instead of giving him good drugs, she gives him bad drugs with bacteria. Al died, but there was also another reason.
