"Words are too precious to throw around carelessly. Words demand respect. They are beautiful; they are terrible. They are a gift and a curse. I will never forget what they can do. Because words have cost me everything." For over two years, she hasn't spoken a word. She hasn't even uttered her name. Known simply as Subject Six Eight Four or Jane Doe, only she knows the secret power of her words -- something her evaluators at Lengard, a secret government facility, cannot imagine. Enduring experiments and finding that she doesn't know who to trust, will Jane Doe learn to trust herself enough to risk? What if the power of your words could change the world? Would you speak? (Florida Teen Read, 2020)
