Kassy Lynn Tyla.
When society killed the girl, now you know who they were on about.
She's forced to stay part of an abusive relationship with a boy she's hated from the start.
The only people who will take her in are the school's 'populars', and they just toy with her constantly.
Her best friend Johnny, and her other male friends are the only people who actually get her.
One night, everything goes horribly wrong for Kassy, but her parents have got the wrong end of the stick.
And so naturally they send her to Romania, to stay with a family who were last in line when God was giving out the wealth and good fortune.
And the bad luck just keeps on coming.
Nation is a compelling story about pure bad luck, and how a group of unlikely companions learn to make the best of it. There'll be comedy, romance, tragedy, and action. But you'll never know unless you read.
