Hiatt, Fred

YA
When Ti-Anna's father, a Chinese dissident, disappears in Hong Kong, her friend Ethan hatches a plan: the two tenth graders will fly from Washington, D.C., to find him. Although the teen dialogue doesn't always ring true, Hiatt manages to weave in twentieth-century Chinese history, human trafficking, and vivid setting details--all while keeping the pace moving. Back matter discusses the fictional story's real-life inspirations.
