And her future with Roman appears as unsteady as the ground under her feet…īookList: It seems unlikely that the master of noir-tinged, surrealistic black humor would write a novel for young readers. The only problem is that she can’t find a way to do this without leaving Lithia forever-or risking her own life and the lives of those she loves. Trying to balance a busy life while keeping Lithia safe isn’t easy-and soon Kat realizes that nothing is a higher priority than saving her hometown, along with its abundance of land and animals, from devastation. As several recent earthquakes baffle scientists and put residents on edge, it seems that something more dangerous may be looming in Lithia’s future. Yet Kat finds it difficult to focus on such things as college and romance, with terror still haunting the hills of Lithia and threatening the entire town. On the brink of new beginnings, she is back together with Roman, their relationship deepening more and more even as she wonders whether she may still harbor feelings for Alex. N the final book in the acclaimed Lithia Trilogy, Kat has new losses to mourn but also new reasons to live. Meanwhile, the spirits of the town keep watch over everything-and occasionally find it necessary to intervene…
The Ghost Runner, continuing Kat's adventures in Out of Breath, brings us further into the mysterious town of Lithia, where the old traditions of logging and gold mining-and the new traditions of development-collide with conservation.
As her relationship with Alex begins to crumble, a new secret from her past emerges, and she is once again torn between those she loves as she struggles to reconcile her dark past with her hopes for a brighter future. Yet Kat’s past is never far behind, and as old ghosts begin to catch up with her, she finds herself fighting to defend the things she believes in, from the hope of a new family to the deeply wooded forests that she has begun to call home. It’s not easy, but she tries to move on: She starts taking classes at the local college, keeps up with her job at the running store, and is beginning a relationship with Alex. In The Ghost Runner, Kat is still in Lithia, trying not to see Roman’s face everywhere she looks. Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, & Accessibility.
