The Face on the Milk Carton (Janie Johnson Book 1)

Caroline B. Cooney

Laurel-Leaf

It is 1704. Mercy Carter lives in Deerfield, Massachusetts - an English settlement in a divided continent. Death is always close at hand - death from the weather, from the French, and from the Kahnawake Indians. It is a brutal place. And it's about to get worse. When a group of Kahnawake raids Deerfield one icy night, Mercy is captured, with hundreds of other settlers, and dragged by the Indians on a long, long trail to the unknown north. They walk until their feet bleed and their spirits are bowed. They walk with little food, for forty days and nights, three-hundred miles to a Kahnawake village. Some of them don't make it that far - and many of those who do would rather have died on the way. A new life lies in wait. But is it slavery - or a kind of freedom? Mercy, along with her fiercely religious, fiercely English family, had always thought of the Indians as savages. But as she begins to live their life, she becomes one of them...

When she is six, red-haired Anaxandra is taken from her island home in the Aegean Sea by King Nicander of Siphnos. She is to be a companion to his daughter, Princess Callisto and life for her starts over. Six years later, fate intervenes again. Siphnos is sacked by murderous pirates, and Anaxandra is the only survivor. When a fleet of ships stops on the island to investigate, she pretends to be Princess Callisto in order to survive. The ships belong to Menelaus, king of Sparta, who takes her back to his palace. But his beautiful, dangerous wife Helen does not believe that this flame-haired girl is Callisto. Anaxandra manages to avoid Helen and stay safe - until two Trojan princes, Aeneas and Paris arrive in Sparta. But when Menelaus is away, Paris and Helen begin a passionate affair that preludes war between Troy and Sparta. When they leave for Troy, Anaxandra follows and is soon caught up in both the fighting and a struggle with herself over where her loyalties lie.

Walking around New York City was what Mitty Blake did best. He loved the city, and even after 9/11, he always felt safe. Mitty was a carefree guy–he didn’t worry about terrorists or blackouts or grades or anything, which is why he was late getting started on his Advanced Bio report. Mitty does feel a little pressure to hand something in–if he doesn’t, he’ll be switched out of Advanced Bio, which would be unfortunate since Olivia’s in Advanced Bio. So he considers it good luck when he finds some old medical books in his family’s weekend house that focus on something he could write about. But when he discovers an old envelope with two scabs in one of the books, the report is no longer about the grade–it’s about life and death. His own. This edge-of-your-seat thriller will leave you breathless.

All their time is now swallowed up by their new romances, and phone conversations, now few and far between, are spent organizing what they'll do to please their guys. Fraser can't shake the feeling that becoming half of a couple has made her less of a person, and she longs to recapture her lost friendship with Annie. Yet Annie doesn't seem to think anything's changed. Old friends... new loves... Does growing up mean choosing between them?

In the safety of the woods, Jethro’s power seems to surge: It’s as if the trees and boulders of the forest rise up to greet him. He’s so different, so beautiful, and so . . . inhuman. Before long, Jethro becomes her deadly obsession. The truth about Jethro is terrifying, and Nicoletta is already in too deep. Much too deep . . .
