Bookroo's summary

Grace Blakely is convinced her mother was murdered, but no one believes her. On Embassy Row, surrounded by diplomats and secrets, she must uncover the truth before her past destroys everything. With no one to trust—not her powerful grandfather, her new friends, or the enigmatic Russian boy next door—Grace faces a dangerous game. As tensions rise, one wrong move could topple nations. Can Grace find the killer and prevent a catastrophe, or will her relentless pursuit of justice lead to disaster?

From the publisher

A new series of global proportions – from master of intrigue, New York Times bestselling author Ally Carter.Grace Blakely is absolutely certain of three things:1. She is not crazy.2. Her mother was murdered.3. Someday she is going to find the killer and make him pay.As certain as Grace is about these facts, nobody else believes her – so there’s no one she can completely trust. Not her grandfather, a powerful ambassador. Not her new friends, who all live on Embassy Row. Not Alexei, the Russian boy next door, who is keeping his eye on Grace for reasons she neither likes nor understands.Everybody wants Grace to put on a pretty dress and a pretty smile, blocking out all her unpretty thoughts. But they can’t control Grace – no more than Grace can control what she knows or what she needs to do. Her past has come back to hunt her . . . and if she doesn’t stop it, Grace isn’t the only one who will get hurt. Because on Embassy Row, the countries of the world stand like dominoes, and one wrong move can make them all fall down.
