Synopsis Blood & Ivy by : Paul Collins

A delectable true-crime story of scandal and murder at America’s most celebrated university. On November 23rd of 1849, in the heart of Boston, one of the city’s richest men simply vanished. Dr. George Parkman, a Brahmin who owned much of Boston’s West End, was last seen that afternoon visiting his alma mater, Harvard Medical School. Police scoured city tenements and the harbor, and offered hefty rewards as leads put the elusive Dr. Parkman at sea or hiding in Manhattan. But one Harvard janitor held a much darker suspicion: that their ruthless benefactor had never left the Medical School building alive. His shocking discoveries in a chemistry professor’s laboratory engulfed America in one of its most infamous trials: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. John White Webster. A baffling case of red herrings, grave robbery, and dismemberment—of Harvard’s greatest doctors investigating one of their own, for a murder hidden in a building full of cadavers—it became a landmark case in the use of medical forensics and the meaning of reasonable doubt. Paul Collins brings nineteenth-century Boston back to life in vivid detail, weaving together newspaper accounts, letters, journals, court transcripts, and memoirs from this groundbreaking case. Rich in characters and evocative in atmosphere, Blood & Ivy explores the fatal entanglement of new science and old money in one of America’s greatest murder mysteries.

Synopsis The Girl Destined to Rise by : Brittany Czarnecki

Immediately following the events in book one, Ivy, Finn and Ronin have set sail for home, but the walls of Godstone won't keep out the danger that follows. With Ivy still broken over her recent loss, she hopes to find safety and comfort back home, and introduce Finn to her family. Soon after arriving, Ivy and her family head to Grey Raven after going months without hearing from Lady Oharra and fearing the worst, but no one is prepared for what they find. The raiders are ramping up their attacks, pushing closer to Godstone with the intent to dethrone King Magnus and conquer the North. Magnus tries to rally his allies, but someone has been shooting down his messenger hawks. With no other choice, Magnus, Finn and the king's men ride for the Twisted Tower, while Ivy accompanies a group to Tordenfall to bring back as many warriors as they can to defend Godstone. If Godstone should fall, so too will the North. With Finn and Ivy separated, Finn gets to know King Magnus better and the two become close. Back home, with the North rallied and ready to fight, a new threat comes from within the walls of Godstone. Someone the Blackbourne's thought they could trust has betrayed them, sent by Helvarr to destroy them from the inside. After a fight that nearly costs Ivy everything, a mysterious woman named Kyatta informs Ivy of her fate. Kyatta has powers that Ivy doesn't understand, but she will soon unlock her own powers that have remained dormant up until now. The battle for Godstone begins, and when Helvarr marches his army to their walls, nothing and no one will stop him- no army, no girl with her promise, not even a king. The stakes are higher, the love deeper, battles bloodier and the ending will leave you shocked. You might even think to yourself... "I knew it."

Synopsis Digging to Indochina by : Connie Biewald

Seventeen-year-old Ivy MacKenzie is consumed by bitterness over the tragic death of her Vietnam veteran father. Desperate to break free of a family that doesn't understand her and a small town that suffocates her, Ivy runs away with Gil Thompson-a stranger who shows her a passion she's never known and a violent danger she never saw coming. Ivy's younger brother Bryan has a tender heart, conflicting memories, and a fierce loyalty to his family. Their disengaged, high-strung mother Carol parents as best she knows how while coping with her own lingering heartbreak and entering into a new relationship. Though their voices and struggles are their own, each of the MacKenzies grapples with loss and disappointment and yearns for love and belonging. Together, they come of age and come to terms with the ways that memories and dreams can blur reality; they learn what it means to embrace family, flaws and all; and they discover how digging to Indochina can help them find their way home. "Biewald's writing probes and sifts the buried storage vaults of family relationships with an archaeologist's precision."-Lois Lowry, creator of the popular Anastasia Krupnik series and two-time recipient of the Newbery Medal for her books The Giver and Number the Stars "An always interesting, authentic story about the next generation, the children of Vietnam veterans-children who dig, not to China, but to Indochina. A good solid read." -Grace Paley, author of The Little Disturbances of Man, Enormous Changes at the Last Minute, and Later the Same Day
