Description
After a harrowing summer in Prague, Lumikki Andersson is back in Finland at her prestigious art school, concentrating on graduation. She lands the lead role in the school’s modern-day adaptation of “Snow White” and finds herself facing a new distraction—Sampsa, the boy playing the role of the huntsman, who has an undeniable allure that makes Lumikki conflicted about what, and who, she wants.
As Lumikki starts falling into something more than just her role on stage, a shadow is cast over the production when she begins receiving creepily obsessive love notes. Lumikki can’t ignore the increasingly hostile tone of her admirer’s messages, and when the stalker threatens mass violence at the play’s premiere, Lumikki knows she must discover who is behind the menace and stop the person at all costs.
With a foe who has a heart as black as ebony, does Lumikki have any hope of saving those she loves?
Advance Praise
Praise for As Red as Blood, Book One in the Snow White Trilogy
“Limned
in stark red, white and black, this cold, delicate snowflake of a tale sparkles
with icy magic.” – Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Simukka creates a tough, self-sufficient heroine in 17-year-old Lumikki
Andersson in this first book in the Snow White Trilogy… Fans of Nesbø and
Larsson won’t be disappointed.”
–
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“[A] YA novel in the tradition of Nordic noir—edgy crime novels set in frigid
lands.”
– Booklist (starred review)
“A compelling start, a strong female character, the rich background setting of
Finland, and a hint of a Snow White retelling are highlights of this work.” –
School Library Journal
“The Arctic setting of this import is used to full advantage, evoking a chilling
mood and strewing genuine frigid weather obstacles in Lumikki’s way…The first
entry in Simukka’s Snow White trilogy will tempt mystery readers back for
more.”
– The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
