Leaving behind a volatile life in West Virginia, Rilla arrives in Yosemite to stay with her park-ranger half-sister. Rilla's out of her element but is eventually drawn to a group of rock climbers, including competitive Petra, confident Adeena, and intense Walker. Rilla determines to prove herself capable--of climbing El Capitan and of controlling her own story--in this appealing coming-of-age drama. Reading list. Glos.

Eighteen-year-old Tourmaline Harris is the daughter of the president of the Wardens, a feared biker club in southern Virginia. Virginia Campbell's shady employer has told her to investigate the Wardens. They forge an unexpected friendship and defy the expectations of the men in their lives. This debut's prose can be overwrought, but Tourmaline and Virginia stand out as strong and determined protagonists.
