Serendipity Jones is Katniss Everdeen meets Annie Oakley in this extraordinary YA debut, presented by James Patterson. Now in paperback!
James Patterson presents a genre-bending, action-packed debut--and introduces YA´s new favorite, kick-ass heroine: Serendipity Jones, the fastest sharpshooter in tomorrow´s West.
Seventeen-year-old Serendipity "Pity" Jones inherited two things from her mother: a pair of six shooters and perfect aim. When her father attempts to marry her off to a stranger, she runs away from their humble farming commune and ends up in the most dangerous, decadent city on the continent: Cessation (a lawless Las Vegas). Pity becomes the star of the Theater Vespertine as a trick sharpshooter like Annie Oakley, and there she finds fame, friendship and--what she most wanted--belonging.
But there´s a darker side to the Theater...The Finale. Every so often the fighting factions of Cessation have to be kept in line with a little demonstration, a nightmarish public execution. And Pity has a starring role...
Westworld meets Marie Lu´s Legend in this extraordinary YA debut, now available in paperback!
