gmw: "The baby is sick and fading fast. Annie wants to help, but she is only seventeen and this is her first job as a nanny. No one will listen to her."
This is exactly how it should be. Hinting, not telling. As you said, gmw, you don't know the book, so the details could change. Quibbling those is pointless. The important thing is, you got the style. Short. Sharp. Easy to read quickly. Gives the essence of the story, but doesn't tell the story.
Now, go do this to your own blurb.-)
