July Abraham, a girl at an elite school in Pretoria, South Africa, never imagined she could stop a rapist, until she falls over a class mate, Andie, in the gardens at Mark's party. Finding Andie, who has just been raped, shatters the lie that has silenced July. She realizes that this man attacks any girl because he simply can. People hide the crime out of shame and fear; the cops blame only the victim. In the cold of that dark garden, with Andie unconscious in her arms, July resolves to find and stop this man. She does not have a vehicle, friends, or a fortified castle of a home. Her mother is widowed and dying. But she does know something about this rapist: he has a gang of thugs who do his bidding, boys from her school whom she can name, who go around and find his victims. To find and disarm him, she will have to confront them. But she has nothing to lose. If she protects even one more girl, her task will have been worth it."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Rape victims $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women $x Violence against $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young adult fiction. 650 7 $a Rape victims. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01090022 650 7 $a Teenage girls. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01145412 650 7 $a Women $x Violence against. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01427006 650 7 $a Young adult fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01183080 651 0 $a Pretoria (South Africa) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a South Africa $z Pretoria. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204611 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Social problem fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01982507 655 7 $a Social problem fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Van Rooyen, Caroline. $t Any girl. $d Toronto : Mawenzi House, 2022 $z 9781774150641 $z 9781774150641 $w (OCoLC)1302865067 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117015319.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=775DC620DDAE11EDB031D5162DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
