a question for Cynthia Voight fans

[sphil]

Is Cisco in Seventeen Against the Dealer meant to be Francis Verricker, Dicey's father? Have just reread the wholes series after many years ( it's been raining A LOT here) and was just wondering.

never thought about it that way... was his age ever mentioned? Thought he'd be closer to Dicey's age

by the way, if you could tell me how to pronounce Dicey I'd be grateful (only ever read the books in translation and ended up with something like Dee Cee, which I suspect is wrong)

I always pronounced it 'Dye See' in my head. Haven't read them for a long time .... .

God I love Cynthia Voigt, but I've only read a few of her books because I hardly ever come across them.
I say it the same way as la Belle Dame.
