«Au cœur de ma nuit» is the young adult novel by Sarra Manning, published by Pocket in paperback (386 pages, in French).
Isabel, sixteen, is the school's tyrant: she terrorizes her classmates, lies, drinks, and steals from her father, while hiding her grief over her mother's death, for which she feels guilty. Beneath that facade hides a fragile girl, until an unexpected encounter changes her life.
The original work, «Let's Get Lost», was published in 2006. The translation of the 2008 edition is by Julie Lafon.
Aimed at young readers aged 12 and up, with a teenage protagonist and themes of grief and redemption.
