It's always fun to find a book that brings in a strong male protagonist, but mixes it with a love story. That's what Blood Red Snow White by Marcus Sedgwick does. This story follows a journalist as he leaves England, moves to Russia, and gets caught up in romance and revolution. When Arthur Ransome moved to Russia, he had no idea what was in store for him. He went to work as a journalist and finds himself suspected of being a double agent. When he tries to get out, along with the girl he loves, he faces danger like nothing he has known before. This may be a timely theme with all of the news of Russia and spies and conflict that we hear of in our news each day.
