Bluebird by Sharon Cameron (Scholastic) HB RRP $24.99 ISBN: 9781338355963
In 1946,
Eva leaves behind the rubble of Berlin for the streets of New York City,
stepping from the fiery aftermath of one war into another, far colder one,
where power is more important than principles, and lies are more plentiful than
the truth. Eva holds the key to a deadly secret: Project Bluebird – a horrific
experiment of the concentration camps, capable of tipping the balance of world
power. Both the Americans and the Soviets want Bluebird, and it is something
that neither should ever be allowed to possess.
But Eva
hasn’t come to America for secrets or power. She hasn’t even come for a new
life. She has come to America for one thing: justice. And the Nazi that has
escaped its net.
Aimed at
readers aged thirteen years and older, Bluebird is a taut and affecting
thriller ripe with intrigue and romance. Sharon Cameron weaves an alternately
chilling and poignant portrait of the personal betrayals, terrifying
injustices, and deadly secrets that seethe beneath the surface in the aftermath
of World War II.
