Description
The heat of the summer sun bakes the streets of Prague, but Lumikki’s heart is frozen solid.
Looking to escape the notoriety caused by the part she played in taking down Polar Bear’s crime ring, seventeen-year-old Lumikki Andersson escapes to Prague, where she hopes to find a few weeks of peace among the hordes of tourists. But not long after arriving, she’s cornered by a skittish and strange young woman who claims to be her long-lost sister. The woman, Lenka, is obviously terrified, and even though Lumikki doesn’t believe her story—although parts of it ring true—she can’t just walk away.
Lumikki quickly gets caught up in Lenka’s sad and mysterious world, uncovering pieces of a mystery that take her from the belly of a poisonous cult to the highest echelons of corporate power. On the run for her life again, Lumikki must use all her wits to survive, but in the end, she just may discover she can’t do it all alone.
Advance Praise
Praise for As Red as Blood, Book One in the Snow White Trilogy
“Limned in stark red, white and black, this cold, delicate
snowflake of a tale sparkles with icy magic.” – Kirkus Reviews (starred
review)
“Simukka creates a tough, self-sufficient heroine in 17-year-old Lumikki
Andersson in this first book in the Snow White Trilogy… Fans of Nesbø and
Larsson won’t be disappointed.”
– Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“[A] YA novel in the tradition of Nordic noir—edgy crime novels set in frigid
lands.”
– Booklist (starred review)
“A compelling start, a strong female character, the rich background setting of
Finland, and a hint of a Snow White retelling are highlights of this work.” –
School Library Journal
“The Arctic setting of this import is used to full advantage, evoking a
chilling mood and strewing genuine frigid weather obstacles in Lumikki’s
way…The first entry in Simukka’s Snow White trilogy will tempt mystery readers
back for more.”
– The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
