Cory Doctorow, New York Timesbestselling author ofHomeland
What if the most terrifying person you know is your ten-year-old sister?
Seventeen-year-old Aussie Che Taylor loves his younger sister, Rosa. But he s also certain that she s a psychopath clinically, threateningly, dangerously. Recently Rosa has been making trouble, hurting things. Che is the only one who knows; he s the only one his sister trusts. Rosa is smart, talented, pretty, and very good at hiding what she is and the manipulation she s capable of.
Their parents, whose business takes the family from place to place, brush off the warning signs as Rosa s acting out. Now that they have moved again from Bangkok to New York City their new hometown provides far too many opportunities for Rosa to play her increasingly complex and disturbing games. Che s always been Rosa s rock, protecting her from the world. Now, the world might need protection from her.

Timi Debreczeni a dat nota:

This is the best book I have ever read in my life. It's the first book I recommend if someone asks for a recommendation. Getting to know Rosa is so scary, because she is terrifying, manipulating, spineless, does not care about anyone but her. And then trying to understand what her brother has to go through because of her, because he loves her and is trying to protect her fron being discovered and the world from her. Oh god, the suspence! Oh god, the twist at the end! This book will blow your mind!
