OLDER FICTION
Lasky, Kathryn

Blood Secret

(3) YA Jerry, an elective mute since her mother's disappearance years earlier, moves in with an elderly aunt. Items in an old trunk allow Jerry to travel into the past and discover her family's sad history. As she regains her voice, she learns about her ancestors, Spanish Jews living under the Inquisition. This disturbing, at times graphic novel, tells an engaging story--part fantasy, part historical fiction.
