{"product_id":"the-plot-thickens-linda-lee-schell-9781532705298","title":"The Plot Thickens","description":"St. Petersburg, Russia 1958Nikita Khrushchev, head of the mighty Soviet Union, has a problem. Actually, he has more problems than he can count: rampant bureaucratic inefficiency, low corn production, ingrained police corruption, a slippery KGB chief-and now this: A riotous, file shredding insurrection of rodents at the infamous Kresty prison.The instigator? Why it's none other than Gracie, that jaunty, kind-hearted, intrepid dwarf kangaroo from the thirty-sixth universe.What begins innocently enough as a dream vacation for the 'roo and her steadfast feline companion Gibson, soon turns into a richly imagined romp that takes us from the enchanting streets of St. Petersburg to the glamour of a Van Cliburn piano recital to the creepy corridors of a harsh \"rehabilitation\" center.Along the way you'll discover a Khrushchev as you never imagined, as well as ride along with Van Cliburn as he takes a midnight train journey into the heart of Russia.It's all here. Candy-colored palaces, rousing music, a host of colorful characters (human and otherwise), treachery and ultimately, thanks to Gracie's determined efforts, justice in a city where beauty and hanky-panky are never far apart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Lee Schell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1532705298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781532705298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/26\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.39d","brand":"Linda Lee Schell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44067197911295,"sku":"9781532705298","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f5cf951c-61c4-4d4b-9c2f-6ce65ad822f2.jpg?v=1685411784","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-plot-thickens-linda-lee-schell-9781532705298","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
