Dark eyes / William Harlan Richter


Swapping a privileged life in New York for life on the streets is not what most people choose. But Wallis (Wally) Stoneman - born in Russia, adopted by an American couple - is not your usual teenager. As it turns out, the skills she's gained the hard way make all the difference when she starts to search for her birth mother. With both the police and Russia gangsters on her tail, Wally is in big trouble but determined to find out the truth of her parentage.
This is an intriguing story especially because Wally and her friends are living a life very different from teenagers in Christchurch.

Who would enjoy this? Danger... intrigue... who wouldn't enjoy this? It is written by a Hollywood screenwriter, so it is also possible to imagine it as a great action packed, completely believable  movie.
