Produktbeschreibung
"Filled with political intrigue and emotional tension, Carleson´s riveting novel features a teenage refugee caught in a web of deceit and conspiracy." - PW, starred review When her father is killed in a coup, Laila and her mother and brother leave their war-torn homeland for a fresh start in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. At her new high school, Laila makes mistakes, makes friends, and even meets a boy who catches her eye. But this new life brings unsettling facts to light. The American newspapers call her father a brutal dictator and suggest that her family´s privilege came at the expense of innocent lives. Meanwhile, her mother would like nothing more than to avenge his death, and she´ll go to great lengths to regain their position of power. As an international crisis takes shape around her, Laila is pulled in one direction, then another, but there´s no time to sort out her feelings. She has to pick a side now, and her decision will affect not just her own life, but countless others. . . . Praise for The Tyrant´s Daughter: "Carleson, a former undercover CIA officer, infuses her story with compelling details and gripping authenticity." - The Boston Globe "Every American should read this book. It´s an eye-opener." -Suzanne Fisher Staples, Newbery Honor-winning author of Shabanu From the Hardcover edition.
