Margaret and Emily is Book Seven in the Margaret of Greenwich (R) Young Adult series. As Margaret's Sweet Sixteen party approaches, she is devastated by what she suddenly learns: the dangerous secret surrounding her birth; that her sister, to earn money for college, is working for an escort service; and that her childhood friend has been raped by the son of their high school principal. Meanwhile Erika, the only child of Greenwich's billionaire widower, becomes infatuated with the new but mysterious student, Malcolm; and Hillary will soon give birth to the world's most publicized baby. But Margaret has allies too: Vladimir, a former general in Russia's Presidential Security Service, who considers her a daughter; wealthy, respectable Aunt Lena, whose stories educate Margaret about passion, and her origin; a disabled lawyer, Margaret's father, whose actions exemplify courage; and her boyfriend, Randy, who is the love of her life. R. L. Rhyse, a former resident of Greenwich, Connecticut, is the author of the books in the Margaret of Greenwich(r) series. These include Margaret of Greenwich, Margaret and Erika, Margaret at War, Margaret in Tokyo, Margaret and Eve, and Margaret and Velda.
