The lost year / Katherine Marsh.

Marsh, Katherine, (author.).

Summary:

Thirteen-year-old Matthew is miserable. His journalist dad is stuck overseas indefinitely, and his mom has moved in his one-hundred-year-old great-grandmother to ride out the Covid pandemic, adding to his stress and isolation. But when Matthew finds a tattered black-and-white photo in his great-grandmother's belongings, he discovers a clue that will lead to a life-shattering family secret. Set in alternating timelines that connect the present day to the 1930s and the US to the USSR, Katherine Marsh's latest novel sheds fresh light on Holodomor -- the horrific famine that killed millions of Ukranians, which the Soviet government covered up for decades. -- Provided by publisher.
