Her gold medal vanished. Now her identity might too.
Fifteen-year-old figure skating phenomenon Docia thinks winning Olympic gold is the start of her future-until the judges strip her of the medal and accuse her of being too young to compete. The scandal threatens to destroy her career overnight.
Forced to escape from Russia, Docia pushes her coach for answers and learns the secret her father never meant her to uncover-he has lied about her adoption. Without proof of her age or her past, the judges' accusation might be true. Cut off from the sport she loves, Docia turns to her best friend and a journalist she barely knows. Their search for the truth leads to buried documents, powerful enemies, and a legacy that someone is determined to keep hidden. As lies swirl around her, Docia must find the courage to reclaim her identity, her career, and the fire inside that made her unstoppable on the ice.
Perfect for fans of twisty YA mysteries, fierce heroines, and stories about family secrets.
