YA
Angie returns after being abducted from her Girl Scout camping trip with no memory of the last three years. Diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder, Angie's multiple personas--"Girl Scout," "Little Wife," etc., who all call Angie "Pretty Girl-Thirteen"--reveal her ordeal. A tight plot, empathetic protagonist, and a sensitive treatment of mental illness and trauma yield a compelling first novel.
