The Prodigy - by T a Stevens (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Fifteen-year-old U.S. National Champion figure skater, Jackie Ellis, is among the favorites to win the World Championships in Boston. Her mother, Anne, a former Olympian, coached her daughter's inexplicable rise to the pinnacle of the sport. But Jackie's near-perfect performance comes to a devastating halt when she fails to execute a difficult jump and crashes to the ice, suffering a traumatic brain injury.

When the girl regains consciousness, she's confused and disoriented. Although her surroundings are vaguely familiar, she feels as if she's stepped into a completely different era. Most unnerving of all, she doesn't recognize the people who claim to be her parents.

The doctors can't explain away her daughter's sudden abilities to play piano and speak fluent Norwegian, skills Jackie never learned. As Anne begins to suspect that this girl may not be her daughter, she confronts the haunting echo of a legacy that still reverberates through the family's ancestral home.
