Author of Reese’s Book Club YA Pick The Light in Hidden Places, Sharon Cameron, delivers an emotionally gripping and utterly immersive thriller, perfect for fans of Ruta Sepetys’s Salt to the Sea.

A historical novel, set in postwar New York City.

In 1946, Eva leaves behind the rubble of Berlin for the streets of New York City, stepping from the fiery aftermath of one war into another, far colder one, where power is more important than principles, and lies are more plentiful than the truth. Eva holds the key to a deadly secret: Project Bluebird — a horrific experiment of the concentration camps, capable of tipping the balance of world power. Both the Americans and the Soviets want Bluebird, and it is something that neither should ever be allowed to possess.

But Eva hasn’t come to America for secrets or power. She hasn’t even come for a new life. She has come to America for one thing: justice. And the Nazi that has escaped its net.

Wow, I’m not really sure what to think knowing that Project Bluebird was real and the U.S. Government was cooperating with Nazis after World War II. This historical fiction novel by Sharon Cameron takes the reader through the inside of a fractured mind and wartime atrocities. It’s definitely an older teen, if not, adult read. Eva has come to New York with her childhood friend Brigit to start over after Nazi Germany is occupied and the war is won. The find solace in a home with other orphans and refugees. The dividing lines in America are different, but they exist. Written in two points of view that eventually converge, Bluebird has a high level of suspense and psychological intrigue. I personally struggled with the trauma both main female characters experienced. Nazi and post war Germany was not a kind place. The author uses historically accurate places and details to fill in the story line. I learned a lot and thought the societal parallels to some of what we are experiencing today were interesting. This could be used as a history read for college students.

Thank you Scholastic Press for an advanced reading copy which I received for the tour.
