About this ebook
From the bestselling author of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, Gabrielle Zevin, comes the second in the futuristic, thrilling Birthright trilogy. Anya Balanchine is the reluctant heir to a Mafia boss, and her own family is out to get her . . .
Freed from jail, Anya Balanchine finds life on the outside is even more dangerous than behind bars. Some of her gangland family want revenge for the shooting of her uncle and, as she is forced to flee the country, things are far from the normal life she desired.
Anya hides out in a cacao plantation in Mexico, where she learns the secrets of the illegal and deadly chocolate trade. There she learns that the seemingly random acts of violence back home have a single target – her family.
As bystanders get caught in the crossfire, Anya must act fast and decisively. Meddling back into the Balanchine's world of crime and chocolate would not be without consequences. Innocent lives will be placed in her hands . . .
Because It Is My Blood is the second book in the Birthright series, which began with All These Things I've Done and concludes with In the Age of Love and Chocolate.
