Disappeared by Francisco X. Stork, 326 pages
“Four Months Ago
Sara Zapata's best friend disappeared, kidnapped by the web of criminals who terrorize Juarez.
Four Hours Ago
Sara received a death threat - and with it, a clue to the place where her friend is locked away.
Four Weeks Ago
Emiliano Zapata fell in love with Perla Rubi, who will never be his so long as he's poor.
Four Minutes Ago
Emiliano got the chance to make more money than he ever dreamed - just by joining the web.
In the next four days, Sara and Emiliano will each face impossible choices, between life and justice, friends and family, truth and love. But when the web closes in on Sara, only one path remains for the siblings: the way across the desert to the United States.” This was an excellent story. It was just scary enough to be interesting while not being terrifying. It was realistic, which increased the fear factor, and it is timely, considering the issue of immigration right now. I would give this to teens who like realistic scary stories.
