Stalked
by Christine Hart
Stalked explores an issue seldom talked about and not commonly reported: Sexual harassment of teen girls in the workplace.
It's the summer before her final year of high school, and Amy and her best friend Elise are stoked about their summer job. Two months, no parents, a dreamy twenty-something boss, and a remote Vancouver Island resort. It sounds like the perfect opportunity for shy, artistic Amy to reinvent herself. But when her dream boss turns creepy, Amy has to decide how far she's willing to go to get the recommendations she needs for her future.

This title in the Sidestreets series from Lorimer is a definite must-read for girls...For young women, this simple story with a simple plot is about a very real danger... This is highly recommended for those twelve and up, especially those looking for a summer job.
