The Girl in a Coma
Táto e‑kniha
Each night, Allison lives vicariously through her pioneer ancestors, experiencing their adventures through their eyes. First, she enters the world of Rebecca Haun, a fifteen-year-old rebel who lived in Pennsylvania during the Revolutionary War. To prove a friend innocent of murder, Rebecca betrays her Mennonite beliefs and joins the Women's Brigade with George Washington's rag-tag army at Valley Forge.
And each day, Allison struggles to find a way to show her family that she is awake—a goal that becomes increasingly desperate when she realizes that whoever shot her has come back to finish the job.
