Sekret

In this debut YA historical thriller, a psychically gifted teen in Soviet Russia is kidnapped by the KGB and forced to undertake a dangerous spy mission. "Smart and fresh take on the spy novel." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) An empty mind is a safe mind. Yulia's father always taught her to hide her thoughts and control her emotions to survive the harsh realities of Soviet Russia. But when she's captured by the KGB and forced to work as a psychic spy with a mission to undermine the U.S. space program, she's thrust into a world of suspicion, deceit, and horrifying power. Yulia quickly realizes she can trust no one—not her KGB superiors or the other operatives vying for her attention—and must rely on her own wits and skills to survive in this world where no SEKRET can stay hidden for long. "Smith mesmerizes readers with sprints and twists in the plot while revealing the incredible level of abuse doled out by the Russian government. Readers will be begging for Yulia and Valentin to make their escape into the sunset." —School Library Journal "Cold War – espionage smoothly blended with psychic romance. . . . A sudden cliff-hanger sets up this faced-paced thriller for a sequel." —Kirkus Reviews
