Synopsis: Jessica's life seemed difficult enough since the sudden loss of her mother, but meeting Pietr Rusakova turns her world upside down again. The newest member of Junction High, Pietr is a first generation Russian-American, a fact that by itself makes him different enough to get lots of attention in the small town. But Pietr is far more than good looks and an interesting accent, Pietr has secrets to hide-secrets including dramatic changes he's undergoing that will surely end his life early. Secrets dating back to the Cold War get the better of Jessica's curiosity, leading her into an exciting and dangerous world where her understanding of reality and what makes a man or a monster will be challenged.
Another book that the cover caught my eye and had me clicking to find out more. I think this one sounds like a must read. Who all is with me?
I'm with you! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for WoW-ing 13 to Life it means a lot to me! Glad the cover caught your eye--it was very different than I'd expected but I adore it.
The series website will go live soon, too--some neat ways to explore bits of the small town of Junction before the book hits shelves.
Thanks again!
