    "description": "<p><strong>A teenage girl. A shattering loss. An obsession with a secret arson club. This is the story of a girl who has nothing and will burn anything. </strong><br />&nbsp;<br /> Lucia&rsquo;s father is dead, her mother is in a mental hospital, and she&rsquo;s living in a garage-turned-bedroom with her aunt. And now she&rsquo;s been kicked out of school&mdash;again. Making her way through the world with only a book, a zippo lighter, a pocketful of stolen licorice, a biting wit, and the striking intel&shy;ligence that she tries to hide, Lucia spends her days riding the bus to visit her mother and following the only rule that makes any sense to her: <em>Don&rsquo;t do things you aren&rsquo;t proud of. </em>But when she discovers that her new school has a secret Arson Club, she&rsquo;s willing to do anything to be a part of it, and her life is sud&shy;denly lit up. As Lucia&rsquo;s fascination with the Arson Club grows, her story becomes one of misguided friendship and, ultimately, destruction.</p>",
