BREAKING GLASS from Spencer Hill Press, July 2013
by Lisa Amowitz
On the night
seventeen-year-old Jeremy Glass winds up in the hospital with a broken leg and
a blood alcohol level well above the legal limit, his secret crush, Susannah,
disappears. When he begins receiving messages from her from beyond the grave,
he’s not sure whether they’re real or if he’s losing his grip on reality. Clue
by clue, he gets closer to unraveling the mystery, and soon realizes he must
discover the truth or become the next victim himself.

Author bio:
Lisa
Amowitz was born in Queens and raised in the wilds of Long Island, New York
where she climbed trees, thought small creatures lived under rocks and studied
ant hills. And drew. A lot.
When
she hit her teens, she realized that Long Island was too small for her and she
needed to escape. So she went to college in Pittsburgh. Go figure.
On
leaving college, Lisa became a graphic designer living in New York City. She
eventually married her husband of a zillion years, had two lovely children, and
was swept away to a fairy tale life in the Bronx, where, unbelievably there are
more trees and wilderness than her hometown. She can see the Hudson River from
her kitchen window.
Lisa
has been a professor of Graphic Design at her beloved Bronx Community College
where she has been tormenting and cajoling students for nearly seventeen years.
She started writing eight years ago because she wanted something to illustrate,
but somehow, instead ended up writing YA. Probably because her mind is too dark
and twisted for small children.
BREAKING
GLASS which will be released in July, 2013 from Spencer Hill Press, is her
first published work. VISION, the first of the Finder series will be released
in 2014, along with an unnamed sequel in the following year. LIFE AND BETH will
also be released in the near future, along with graphic novel style art.
