The Stellow Project by Shari Becker

When a killer storm unexpectedly hits Manhattan, seventeen-year-old Lilah Stellow’s dad insists that she and her younger sister, Flori, take refuge at their cabin in the mountains. But instead of joining them with the experimental drug that keeps Lilah alive, he disappears just as news reports name him as a prime suspect in an act of ecoterrorism.

As days pass without her medicine, Lilah finds herself teetering on the edge, caring for her sister, and growing increasingly certain they’re being watched. In her search for answers, Lilah is thrown into the center of a mystery involving an off-the-grid research facility and finds herself drawn in by Daniel, an intriguing boy who is the son of the lead scientist. As she dares to seek answers, Lilah slowly realizes that even the best intentions can go horribly wrong.

“A pair of teenagers uncovers familial secrets after environmental terrorists wreak havoc on New York City… Lilah has a solid emotional journey, one that Becker illuminates well” —Kirkus “A thrilling mystery with suspenseful moments...I would recommend this to anyone of 12+ who loves a suspenseful combo of simple romance and adventure and mystery.” —YA Books Central“A relevant, modern thriller with heart, perfect for readers who don’t yet know they like sci-fi. Lilah is a heroine teen readers will root for. Her resilience and maturity in the face of incredible challenges is downright inspiring. The Stellow Project is a thought-provoking read packed with romance, action, and some serious creepiness!” —Heather Demetrios, award-winning author of Something Real and Exquisite Captive “This fast-paced story of bioterrorism, family relationships, trust, and secrets comes with a breathtaking conclusion that screams sequel.” —Booklist
