Like a punch in the gut, this powerful novel creates a compelling, unforgettable portrait of a teenage girl battling with the anger boiling inside her.
Sometimes Mara feels as if there's a fireball in her head and a roaring behind her eyes. Then she runs like a machine, her ears humming, her heart thumping against her ribs: Let me out! I've got to get out of here. When her body finally gives her the signal - It's all right. Stop. Relax - she doesn't know where she is.
Mara was only ten when she first felt red rage and had the urge to destroy something. Now she knows it's because she's afraid of being destroyed herself. Her one ray of hope is Tibor
