A Windless Place Toni Fuhrman

Fourteen-year-old Maggie Lowin experiences her first bout of hero worship when the unconventional Gina and her family move in next door. Vividly attractive and wildly unpredictable, Gina seems to embody everything that Maggie most admires and wants to become. But Maggie soon discovers that her new neighbor's erratic behavior-enticing at first, then increasingly reckless, manipulative, and dangerous-threatens to shatter Maggie's world. Forced to choose between friendship and family loyalty, Maggie must face unexpected-and tragic-consequences.
