ABOUT
STAINED:
Seventeen-year-old
Sarah Meadows covers the walls of her bedroom with images of beautiful faces
she clips from magazines—and longs for “normal.” Born with a port-wine stain
covering half her face, all her life she’s been plagued by stares, giggles,
bullying, and disgust. Why can’t she be like Diamond, the comic-book hero she
created? Diamond would never let the insults in. That’s harder for Sarah.
But when she’s abducted on the way home from school, Sarah
is forced to uncover the courage she never knew she had. Can she look beyond
her face to find the beauty and strength she has inside, somehow becoming a
hero rather than a victim? It’s the only way Sarah will have any chance of
escaping the prison—both seen and unseen—that this deranged killer has placed around her.
FROM the AUTHOR:
Like I did
with SCARS and HUNTED, I drew on some of my own experiences of bullying, abuse,
and trauma to write STAINED and to give it greater emotional depth. Like Sarah
in STAINED, I experienced abduction, imprisonment, periods of forced
starvation, mind control, and having my life threatened. And like Sarah, I
tried hard to fight against my abuser, keep my own sense of self, and escape. I
hope readers will see Sarah's strength and courage, and appreciate her
emotional growth as she reclaims herself.
