Beschreibung

<p><b>Amanda McCrina's <i>Traitor</i> is a tightly woven YA thrill ride exploring political conflict, deep-seated prejudice, and the terror of living in a world where betrayal is a matter of life or death.</b><br><br>"Alive with detail and vivid with insight, <i>Traitor</i> is an effortlessly immersive account of a shocking and little-known moment in the turbulent history of Poland and Ukraine-and ironically, a piercing and bittersweet story of unflinching loyalty. I think Tolya has left my heart a little damaged forever." -Elizabeth Wein, #1 <i>New York Times</i> Bestselling Author of <i>Code Name Verity</i> and <i>The Enigma Game</i> <br><br><i>Poland, 1944</i>. After the Soviet liberation of Lwów from Germany, the city remains a battleground between resistance fighters and insurgent armies, its loyalties torn between Poland and Ukraine. <br><br>Seventeen-year-old Tolya Korolenko is half Ukrainian, half Polish, and he joined the Soviet Red Army to keep himself alive and fed. When he not-quite-accidentally shoots his unit's political officer in the street, he's rescued by a squad of Ukrainian freedom fighters. They might have saved him, but Tolya doesn't trust them. He especially doesn't trust Solovey, the squad's war-scarred young leader, who has plenty of secrets of his own.<br><br>Then a betrayal sends them both on the run. And in a city where loyalty comes second to self-preservation, a traitor can be an enemy or a savior-or sometimes both.<br><br>This title has common core connections.</p>
