All fall down by Ally Carter
An Embassy Row novel. Scholastic, 2015. ISBN: 9781743628942
(Age: 13+) Highly recommended.
'The scar that is very real.
The scar that is perfectly clear.
The scar that has haunted my dreams every night since the moment my
mother died - from the moment the Scarred Man killed her.'
Grace Blakely is a 16 year old girl. A 16 year old girl, who three
years ago, witnessed the murder of her mother. Or so she says. No
one believes her and they become even more skeptical when she claims
to see him in the state of Adria. Everyone tells her that her
mother's death was an accident, but Grace knows the truth. And she
will do everything she can to catch the man behind it - the Scarred
Man.
I would recommend this book to teenage girls, 13 and over. Boys who
enjoy some action stories about friendship would also like this
book.
Ally Carter is an inspiring author who knows how to portray the
characters' emotions and feelings. Another Embassy Row Novel
is due to come out soon and I am sure it will be just as interesting
as the first one.
