My favorite scar
(Book)
Description
"Fifteen-year-old aAmbar has never known any parent other than her father, Vaictor Mondragaon, nor any life other than his--the life of a criminal. On any given Friday night, aAmbar longs to be at the arcade or a rock concert, but she's more likely to bepatching up Vaictor's latest bullet hole in a dingy motel or creating a new set of fake identities for the both of them. Although she has come to terms with the realities of her life and enjoys aspects of the freedom from societal constraints that lawlessness offers her, she yearns for love and stability--to be like every other teenage girl. When a tattooed mercenary kills Vaictor's best friend and vows that Vaictor is next, father and daughter set off on a joyride across Argentina in search of bloody retribution--kill or be killed. But aAmbar's growing pains hurt worse than her beloved sawed-off shotgun's kickback as she begins to question the structure of her world. How much is her father not telling her? Could her life ever be different? And will she survive long enough to find out?"--
