The Forbidden City Series by Melissa Addey

Seventeen-year-old Alex Jackson comes home from school to find that his father, a CBC news cameraman, wants to take him to China's capital, Beijing. Once there, Alex finds himself on his own in Tian An Men Square as desperate students fight the Chinese army for their freedom. Separated from his father and carrying illegal videotapes, Alex must trust the students to help him escape.

Closely based on eyewitness accounts of the massacre in Beijing, Forbidden City is a powerful and frightening story.

From the Trade Paperback edition.

I was homeschooled and grew up on an ecological farm in Italy. Along the way, I've worked for Sainsbury's head office, looking after the organic line of products as well as fostering new products and packaging; for Roehampton University, developing student entrepreneurs; completed a Masters focusing on innovation; and worked for over six years as a business consultant on a government scheme delivering mentorship, advice, training, and subsidies to small firms, largely i. I now live in London with my husband, small son, and infant daughter, juggling childcare and writing. I write historical novels, nonfiction, and magazine articles, among other things.
