The Color of Ink

A forbidden journal of anonymous poems and essays could cost Katya Benedek her life—or preserve the soul of a revolution. Budapest, 1956: Soviet tanks have crushed Hungary's uprising, and Katya's father lies in a secret police cell, arrested for running an underground press. He left his twelve-year-old daughter one task: protect the hand-bound book of dissident voices at all costs. Now a state security officer stalks her through the shattered city, certain the pages hide encoded resistance secrets, while Katya races to find the writers behind the words before they vanish forever.
