Didn't the judge know Karina was the only survivor of a plane crash that killed her parents? Wasn't there something in the American justice system that prevented cruel and unusual punishment? How could she deal with her loss and the terrible nightmares that she would face if placed in such an environment? Karina had promised herself she would not cry, but now the tears flowed uncontrollably. What new nightmares lie ahead?

Autorenporträt
Terry Umphenour is an international educator who teaches math, science, and leadership courses to middle school students in the Concordia International School system. His leadership courses train students to use survival techniques in harsh environments to develop better communication, teamwork, and decision-making skills. He supervises a marine research program that prepares students to be active global citizens by learning to scuba dive and collect data on the health of ocean reefs. Students share that data with Reef Check scientists who monitor the oceans' health. His goal for the Karina adventure series is to excite young adults to the wonders of science and the importance of making responsible decisions with regards to the health of the Earth's biomes and the communities they serve.
