Book Description:
In
this heart-wrenching and suspenseful teen thriller, sixteen-year-old
Sarah Meadows longs for "normal." Born with a port-wine stain covering
half her face, all her life she’s been plagued by stares, giggles,
bullying, and disgust. But when she’s abducted on the way home from
school, Sarah is forced to uncover the courage she never knew she had,
become a hero rather than a victim, and learn to look beyond her face to
find the beauty and strength she has inside. It’s that—or succumb to a
killer.
Tag Line:
Sometimes you have to be your own hero.
Release Date:
Nov 19, 2013
Publisher:
Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
From the author:
Like
I did with SCARS and HUNTED, I drew on some of my own experiences
of bullying, abuse, and trauma to write STAINED and to give it
greater emotional depth. Like Sarah in STAINED, I experienced
abduction, imprisonment, periods of forced starvation, mind control, and
having my life threatened. And like Sarah, I tried hard to fight
against my abuser, keep my own sense of self, and escape. I hope readers
will see Sarah's strength and courage, and appreciate her emotional
growth as she reclaims herself.
