Описание: Laureth Peak's father is a writer. For years he's been trying, and failing, to write a novel about coincidence. His wife thinks he's obsessed, Laureth thinks he's on the verge of a breakdown.

He's supposed to be doing research in Austria, so when his notebook shows up in New York, Laureth knows something is wrong. On impulse she steals her mother's credit card and heads for the States, taking her strange little brother Benjamin with her. Reunited with the notebook, they begin to follow clues inside, trying to find their wayward father.

Ahead lie challenges and threats, all of which are that much tougher for Laureth than they would be for any other 16-year old. Because Laureth Peak is blind.

Описание:

Some secrets are better left buried; some secrets are so frightening they might make angels weep and the devil crow. A scary novel by a three-time Printz Award honoree.

Thought provoking as well as intensely scary, Marcus Sedgwick's White Crow unfolds in three voices.

Rebecca has come to a small seaside village to spend the summer.
Ferelith offers to show Rebecca the secrets of the town . . . but at a price.
Finally, there's a priest whose descent into darkness illuminates the girls' frightening story.

White Crow is as beautifully written as it is horrifically gripping.

This title has Common Core connections.

Описание:

Equal parts thriller, love story, and fairytale, Printz Medal-winning author Marcus Sedgwick's Blood Red Snow White is a gripping, romantic adventure novel based on the true story of Arthur Ransome's experiences with love and betrayal in war-torn Russia.

There never was a story that was happy through and through.

When writer Arthur Ransome leaves his unhappy marriage in England and moves to Russia to work as a journalist, he has little idea of the violent revolution about to erupt. Unwittingly, he finds himself at its center, tapped by the British to report back on the Bolsheviks even as he becomes dangerously, romantically entangled with Leon Trotsky's personal secretary.

Both sides seek to use Arthur to gather and relay information for their own purposes . . . and both grow to suspect him of being a double agent. Arthur wants only to elope far from conflict with his beloved, but her Russian ties make leaving the country nearly impossible. And the more Arthur resists becoming a pawn, the more entrenched in the game he seems to become.

Blood Red Snow White, a Soviet-era thriller about the author of the Swallows and Amazons series, from renowned Printz award winning author Marcus Sedgwick, is sure to keep readers on the edge of their seats. Sedgwick masterfully evokes the tumultuous atmosphere of Russia leading up to the creation of the communist Soviet Union, with colorful depictions of major historical figures like the Romanov tsar and tsarina, Grigori Rasputin, Leon Trotsky, and Vladimir Lenin.

Marcus Sedgwick is the author of Saint Death, The Ghosts of Heaven, She Is Not Invisible, Midwinterblood, White Crow, and Revolver.

Praise for Blood Red Snow White
"Sedgwick uses vivid, fairy tale imagery to describe historical events." --Publishers Weekly

"Drenched in atmosphere, Blood Red Snow White] gives vivid depictions of snowy Russia . . ., eerie portrayals of Rasputin and the czar's family, and the rise of Trotsky and Lenin. . . . trademark Sedgwick envelope-pushing." --Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Marcus Sedgwick:
"Sedgwick is one of the most sophisticated, thought-provoking voices in YA novels." --Booklist on The Ghosts of Heaven
