Stolen by Lucy Christopher
Winner of the Michael L. Printz Award
* "An emotionally raw thriller...a haunting account of captivity and the power of relationships." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review
The captivating, disturbing, and heartbreakingly beautiful thriller from award-winning and critically acclaimed author, Lucy Christopher.
A girl: Gemma, 16, at the airport, on her way to a family vacation.
A guy: Ty, rugged, tan, too old, oddly familiar, eyes blue as ice.
She steps away. For just a second. He pays for her drink. And drugs it. They talk. Their hands touch. And before Gemma knows what's happening, Ty takes her. Steals her away. To sand and heat. To emptiness and isolation. To nowhere. And expects her to love him.
Written as a letter from a victim to her captor, Stolen is Gemma's desperate story of survival; of how she has to come to terms with her living nightmare--or die trying to fight it.
The ALA recognized Lucy Christopher's novel Stolen a Printz Honor Book, and it won the Branford Boase Award in England and the Golden Inky Award in Australia for best debut. She's also the author of Flyaway, a young adult novel. Lucy is a resident of Monmouth, Wales.
