YA
As Red as Blood Trilogy series.
Translated by Owen F. Witesman.
This Finnish import is the first in a noir trilogy inspired by "Snow White." Estranged from her father, Lumikki Andersson is largely left to her own devices when she stumbles upon washed Euros drying in her school's darkroom, a drug conspiracy, and possibly even murder. This exhilarating story of an independent but vulnerable teen will appeal to older readers seeking a sophisticated thriller.
