Wolf by Wolf

The age old question- what if Adolf Hitler had won the war. What would the world look like? Yale doesn't have to wonder. She is living it. As a child, she was transported to a concentration camp and chosen by the doctor in charge to be a part of his special experiments. When her barrack mates realize what new powers these experiments have given her, they find a way for her to sneak out of the camp. See, Yael can skin shift. So she shifts into a little German girl and walks out of camp where she is found by the resistance. And she becomes part of the resistance's plan- get close to Hitler and kill him. To do this she becomes Adele Wolf, a Victor in the cross continent motor cycle race. Adele is chosen because Hitler took a fancy to her at the last Victor's Ball. But in order to get to the ball, Yael must WIN the race against 16 other victory hungry competitors. They don't play fair. They aren't nice. Oh, and Adele's twin brother is also in the race and keeping a close eye on Yael. Yael doesn't know if she can pass as Adele with her twin looking on. And then there is the matter of Luka. He also has some mysterious past with Adele that Yael doesn't know about. There is danger around every hairpin turn and the stakes couldn't be higher. I enjoyed this book and Graudin's writing. It was refreshing to see someone actually get out of the concentration camps and exact some revenge, even though this ends in a MAJOR cliffhanger. No worries, I immediately ordered the sequel and it will be devoured soon enough. Hope this catches your fancy and you give it a read. Happy reading my friends!
