From the award-winning author of Jerk, California, comes a powerful and hard-hitting story about what it means to live your life—for your own sake.

How do you save someone else’s life when you’ve already sacrificed your own?

Seventeen-year-old Crow will stop at nothing to protect her younger sister—even if it costs her life. But then she’s given a chance to come back and make things right. There are a few catches, though. First, she won’t come back as herself. And before she can set things straight, she’ll have to figure out what’s what—and things aren’t exactly as clear-cut as she remembered.

Praise for Mayday

Praise for Jonathan Friesen:

"Emotionally rewarding."
--VOYA, on Jerk

"Compelling!"
--SLJ, on Jerk

"Debut author Friesen has Tourette syndrome, and he brings complexity and nuance to Sam's struggle for understanding and self-acceptance. . . . [L]ike any good road story, there are enough corners and bends to keep readers eagerly anticipating what lies ahead at the journey's end."
--Booklist, on Jerk

"Friesen's thrill ride benefits from its unusual setting and its pulse-pounding action (and romance!), making it go down like a six-pack of Red Bull."
--Booklist, on Rush

"Get ready to have your breath catch in your throat or to be taken away."
--VOYA, on Rush
