The Boy with the Star Tattoo
The Third Daughter
“Rich with historical detail and evocative prose, The Third Daughter by Talia Carner fictionalizes the shocking true history of young Jewish girls who were trafficked into prostitution in Buenos Aires. Impeccably researched and beautifully written, this is an unforgettable story of strength and survival.”
–Jillian Cantor, USA Today bestselling author of In Another Time
Hotel Moscow
“HOTEL MOSCOW is a tantalizing book full of corruption, extortion and the shocking treatment of women—and that is just the tip of the Russian iceberg. Talia Carner’s engaging style draws you in with its powerful description of life in Russia twenty months after the fall of communism. I was mesmerized from beginning to end.”
—Deborah Rodriguez, author The Kabul Beauty School
Jerusalem Maiden
“Exquisitely told, with details so vivid you can almost taste the food and hear the voices, JERUSALEM MAIDEN is a coming-of-age story set in a time and place that few of us know. Talia Carner has written a moving and utterly captivating novel that I will be thinking about for a long, long time.”
—Tess Gerritsen, New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Girl
China Doll
“Against both the timeless beauty and cutthroat attitudes that pervade China, author Talia Carner has created a page-turning, globe-spanning adventure. Set in two incompatible worlds—the music industry and China’s orphanages—this is a deftly crafted story of an unwitting pop star driven by a baby to become a formidable heroine.”
—Annie Blachley, correspondent, New York Times and Sacramento Bee, and author of Good Medicine
Puppet Child
“A gut wrenching story of injustice, rescue and responsibility that grips you from Chapter One and never lets go. From its ‘I can’t believe I just read that’ opening scene, PUPPET CHILD delivers a gutsy heroine, a deliciously clueless and corrupt legal system, and suspense to the last page.”
—Chris Gilson, author of Crazy for Cornelia
