The
Socialist Movement is sweeping the Finnish mining community. Recruiters
promise a paradise with free education for all. Jake's life will never
be the same when his father decides to move the family from Minnesota to
the Soviet Union. As new friends and neighbors start to disappear, Jakes
father turns a blind eye creating reasons why such things are happening.
However, when Jakes older brother is hauled away things will never be the
same. Is anyone safe anymore? What will happen to the rest of the family?
Will they escape before it is too late? (Catherine Ryan, New England College,
Henniker, NH) |
