Now, at age sixteen, she’s come back to stay-in order to solve the mystery of her mother’s death. She is also the only granddaughter of perhaps the most powerful ambassador in the world, and Grace has spent every summer of her childhood running across the roofs of Embassy Row. This exciting new series focuses on Grace, who can best be described as a daredevil, an Army brat, and a rebel. “I'm absolutely thrilled to be working with Scholastic for what I hope will be a fantastic new adventure for both my readers and me.” “Embassy Row is a story and a world that I have wanted to write for years,” said Ally Carter. “She always has a trick or twelve up her sleeve, and I for one can’t wait to see what she comes up with this time. “Nobody does it better than Ally Carter when it comes to mixing international intrigue, clever suspense, and characters that tween and teen readers care about deeply,” said David Levithan.

The deal was negotiated by Kristin Nelson from Nelson Literary Agency and David Levithan, VP/Publisher and Editorial Director at Scholastic.
