More about the book

"Fifteen-year-old Ilya arrives in Louisiana from his native Russia for what should be the adventure of his life: a year in America as an exchange student. But he's consumed by the fate of his older brother, Vladimir, back in their hometown. The two have always been close, but when Ilya was tapped for the exchange, Vladimir disappeared into their town's seedy, frug-plagued underworld--and found himself inprison for murder. As he embarks on a mission to prove Vladimir's innocence, Ilya will discover the radical lengths to which his brother has gone to protect him."--Page 4 of cover
