YA historical fiction taking place in Russia under Stalin. I loved this story. It was well written, historically pretty accurate and a great read. A young girl, talented artist and daughter finds herself in Stalins brutal wave of mistrust and violence as everything she knows crumbles in front of her and life becomes imprisonment in Siberia. I loved the main character! My only complaint was I felt the story ended quite abruptly.
