Emmy Laybourne - Dress Your Marines in White
(Monument 14)
Sólo era un informe de prueba. Como uno de muchos,
muchos que había escrito en el pasado. Excepto que esta vez, muchos de los sujetos de prueba estaban muertos
Al principio, el doctor James Cutlass, había pensado
que su nuevo trabajo en NORAD era emocionante y lleno de oportunidades, pero
eso fue antes de la demostración…
“Dress Your Marines in White” es la historia
de las terroríficas elecciones que rodean una demostración de armas químicas
que salió horriblemente mal.
Emmy Laybourne - Monument 14 (Monument 14 #1)
Your mother hollers
that you’re going to miss the bus. She can see it coming down the
street. You don’t stop and hug her and tell her you love her. You don’t
thank her for being a good, kind, patient mother. Of course not—you
launch yourself down the stairs and make a run for the corner.
Only,
if it’s the last time you’ll ever see your mother, you sort of start to
wish you’d stopped and did those things. Maybe even missed the bus.
But the bus was barreling down our street, so I ran.
Fourteen kids. One superstore. A million things that go wrong.
In
Emmy Laybourne’s action-packed debut novel, six high school kids (some
popular, some not), two eighth graders (one a tech genius), and six
little kids trapped together in a chain superstore build a refuge for
themselves inside. While outside, a series of escalating disasters,
beginning with a monster hailstorm and ending with a chemical weapons
spill, seems to be tearing the world—as they know it—apart.
