Opis

(This edition has parenthetical Scripture references sprinkled throughout the text to promote discussion in book clubs, youth groups, or for use in your personal study.) She left home to find her brother...and stepped into an American Rampage. A bioengineered plague spirals the economy into meltdown, and panicked citizens blame fundamentalist Christians for unleashing the disease. Tracy, an eleven-year-old runaway trapped in the resulting riots, escapes with a group of strangers. When she tries to return home six years later, now trained in martial arts by the Christian Masters, her exceptional skills aren't enough to get past the mercenary guards that protect wealthy Silver City. Her only remaining choice? Enter the slums-dubbed The Other Side-and join a women's gang. Her trials with first love, her own self-doubts, and a vicious drug lord bring Tracy to a terrible decision: should she follow the Voice that urges her to reveal her Christian heritage and face certain death? Or go it alone to hunt the elusive drug lord who has vowed to kill her friends? (This novel deals frankly with life situations and would likely be rated PG-13 if shown in a movie theater. Discretion is advised with readers under the age of thirteen.)
