The Pearl Thief (YA)

Julia wakes up in a hospital and knows this will be a summer break like no other.  Upon learning a bit more surrounding her injury she comes to believe it wasn't a accident at all.  This turns into a whopper of a mystery that no gang of kids could ever solve or could they?  Anyways it is a action packed, suspenseful, and one heck of a wild ride that Julia takes you on, all the while showing you her Scotland.  As a prequel to Code Name Verity, you learn where Julie starts to learn her spying skills. 
I really love all of Elizabeth Wein's books, if history had been this interesting and fun in school I might have done much better, and definitely gotten better grades.  These are not girly books but at the same time I love that her main characters never looses site of who they are or what they want, just awesome strong female main characters that everybody will fall in love with and cheer for.
