I am reviewing a copy of Faceless through HarperCollins Children’s Books and Netgalley:
For centuries a small clan clan of spies called the Tabula Rasa has worked ceaselessly to fight oppression. They can pass unseen through enemy lines and “become” other people without being recognized. They are in essence Faceless.
Alice and Louise Winfield are spies in the Tabula Rasa. They are growing up,in England during the Second World War with the threat of Nazi Occupation always near. But Louise wants to live an ordinary life and leaves the agency. Now, as Alice faces her most dangerous assignment yet, she fears discovery, but, most of all, she fears losing her own sister.
Faceless is an upper middle grade novel full of espionage and historical adventure and will appeal to fans of Elizabeth Wein and Ruta Sepetys. Lasky masterfully spins a tale filled with mystery, suspense, and intrigue that will have readers hooked.
Faceless would make a great introduction to open discussions about the Second World War.
I give Faceless five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
