In Smog<\/em>, tomboy Joey thinks she\u2019s got the perfect life: It\u2019s 1965 and she lives in an idyllic Southern California suburb where everyone works for the aerospace industry.

\u201cWith Smog<\/i>, Lisa Morton has created the perfect coming-of-age story. This is a tale of a magical time, with wonderful characters and a gripping plot that just won\u2019t let go. This is Morton at her very best and you don\u2019t want to miss this one.\u201d \u2013 John R. Little<\/b>, Author of The Memory Tree, Miranda<\/em>, and Ursa Major<\/em><\/p>\n

“I’m sure Smog<\/em> by Lisa Morton is a true tale of terrifying horror. Or maybe she’s just that fabulous of a writer. Evocative, provocative, and TOTALLY FREAKY. More!” – Nancy Holder<\/strong>, 5-time Bram Stoker Award winner and NYT bestselling author of Dead in the Water<\/em><\/p>\n
