Trapped by an evil dictatorship, will Cristian be forced to betray his family or will he risk everything he loves to resist? A powerful, heart-breaking thriller based on real events.
*Winner of the Yoto Carnegie Shadowers' Choice Medal for Writing 2023*
Cristian has lived his entire life in the grip of a repressive dictatorship. The country is governed by fear. When the secret police blackmail him, Cristian has an impossible choice. Save the life of his sick grandfather by informing on his family, or risk his life - and all of theirs - by resisting?
At 17, Cristian dreams of being free but doesn't know where to turn. In this climate of constant suspicion, can he trust his best friend, his girlfriend or even his family?
Closely based on the real events of the Romanian Revolution of 1989, this is a powerful, heart-breaking thriller from the author of Salt to the Sea, winner of the Carnegie Medal.
Review
Sepetys brilliantly blends a staggering amount of research with heart, craft, and insight in a way very few writers can . . . the novel crackles with energy. . . The last line will leave readers gasping. Compulsively readable and briliant. ― Kirkus, starred review
A tense, thought-provoking thriller set in a world where no one can be trusted. -- Fiona Noble ― The Guardian
