(3) YA Without warning, Anneli's father moves her from their Mennonite colony in Bolivia to Toronto to find her ten-years-absent mother. Reeling from culture shock but with guidance from neighboring teens, Ana navigates secular high school, reconnects with her mother, and pieces together sinister family secrets. Alternating a third-person narrative in Toronto with Ana's first-person flashbacks to Bolivia heightens the tension as this mystery unfolds.
