Pick the Lock

English

By (author): A.S. King

From Michael L. Printz Award winner A.S. King, a weird and insightful new novel about a girl intent on picking the lock of her toxic family.

Jane Vandermaker-Cook would like her mother back. As Jane's mother tours the world to support the family, Jane lives and goes to school in a Victorian mansion with her younger brother and their mendacious father who confines Janes mother to a system of pneumatic tubes whenever shes at home. And then there's weirdly ever-present Aunt Finch, Milorad the gardener, and his rat, Brutus. For Jane, this all seems normal until she suddenly gains access to the files for a lifetime of security-camera videosher lifetime.

A.S. King's latest surrealist masterpiece follows Janes bizarre and brilliant journey to reconnect with her mother by breaking out of her shell and composing a punk opera. See more
