A naive mafia princess skates into trouble and finds that what she doesn't know can hurt her. Immersed in the world of skating, Gina is oblivious to her family's mafia connections. When the truth comes crashing down all around her, she is forced to face who she is and who she plans to become. But life doesn't always go according to plan. Growing up, the mafia always intrigued me, and ice skating captivated me every winter, so this book hit the spot! A Michigander from birth, I loved all the locations in the Detroit area and throughout the Midwest. Ms. Klingel writes a delightful young voice in a world many know little about. I learned much about the world of skating in the 60s-70s and also about the Detroit mob. I had no idea the mafia reached so close to my hometown! Lovers of YA will adore this new young heroine and her secrets. Jennifer Fromke
