And if that wasn't difficult enough, it seems that Chris Lu, whose family are the Xu's business rivals, is attending Brookings too. There's no way they can be friends. Until a vandal attacks the Lu's bakery and Anna puts the perpetrator's call sign together with a clue from her investigation into the cold-case murder.When a very specific threat is made to Anna, she is forced to team up with Chris to undertake a dangerous search into the hate crimes happening around campus.

Caracteristici

An author who personally connects to the deeper themes in the book: Katie pulls from her own experience to reflect the issues pertinent to American-born teens from the Asian diaspora, facing the model-minority myth and feeling like perpetual foreigners. She started this book as a college student in 2016 amid the rise in Trumpian rhetoric, and the topic remains all-too-common today

Notă biografică

Katie Zhao is the author of the young-adult thriller How We Fall Apart as well as the middle-grade fantasy The Dragon Warrior and its sequel, The Fallen Hero. She grew up in Michigan, where there was little for her to do besides bury her nose in a good book or a writing journal. She graduated from the University of Michigan with a BA in English and a minor in political science; she also completed her master's in accounting there. In her spare time, Katie enjoys reading, singing, dancing (badly) and checking out new photo-worthy restaurants.www.katiezhao.com@ktzhaoauthor
