Fifteen-year-old Lina is a Lithuanian girl living an ordinary life until Soviet officers invade her home and tear her family apart. Separated from her father and forced onto a crowded train, Lina, her mother, and her young brother make their way to a Siberian work camp, where they are forced to fight for their lives . . .
An eye-opening reimagination of a very real tragedy written with grace and heart, Between Shades of Gray is a story of loss, and of fear, and ultimately, of survival.
"Few books are beautifully written, fewer still are important; this novel is both." --The Washington Post
