The clock is TICKING...

Inspired by a True Story...




This heart-pounding adventure follows 2 teens, an American boy and his friend, a Chinese girl from his
 Washington, DC-area high school. 

Using forged documents and a borrowed credit card, Ethan and Ti-Anna travel across the world, their search taking them to Hong Kong, and later to Vietnam as they search for the girl's father who has been kidnapped!

They only have 9 days. 

Although the characters in the novel are fictionalized, they are based on a real Chinese family who were part of the Chinese Democracy Movement and inspired this story.

A Ghost Story?

Eve, a runaway, finds a new job at a coffee shop on the outskirts of Tuscon. When she's approached by two wealthy teens who claim she bears an uncanny resemblance to their missing cousin Aurora, her life takes a turn for the dark and mysterious. Drawn into a scheme to win Aurora's inheritance, Eve finds herself impersonating the girl, who disappeared three years ago on the night her best friend Elizabeth died. But when Liza's ghost begins to haunt Eve, doing harm to the people close to her under the guise of "protecting" her, Eve finds herself in a nightmare maze of lies and deception that leads her to question even her own identity. She realizes her only chance is to uncover the truth about what happened the night Liza died, and to find Liza's killer - before she's next.
