Om Grace of the Empire State

1930 New YorkAs the Great Depression bites, show dancer Grace's Irish immigrant family can't afford the rising rents, nor the medicine that her little sister urgently needs. When her twin brother is injured and can no longer work on the construction of the half-built Empire State Building, Grace steps up - literally. In secret, she trades her dancing shoes for worker boots, braving deadly metal work hundreds of feet in the sky. But survival isn't guaranteed. Failure could mean not only losing her job, but also her life, and the livelihood of her family and her team. Sparks fly across the great metal beams as a terrible accident and a split-second decision leaves Grace re-evaluating everything that she thought she knew about herself. A breathtaking story of heart and hope, danger and sacrifice, this debut novel is as electrifying as the city that never sleeps.
