Review of 'White sands, red menace' on 'Goodreads'
This is the sequel to The Green Glass Sea. I read it without brushing up my memory of Sea, and didn't have any trouble dropping right into it. Dewey and Suze cope with becoming teenagers, their family's involvement in the atomic age, being expected to conform to gender roles, and all that stuff. The late 1940s world she creates feels very real. I stayed up until about 3am finishing it last night, so it's definitely compelling!
