Free Read from Marta Acosta

If you are on Marta's Mailing List or read Vampire Wire you've probably already heard the news but if not- here it is.

Marta Acosta is offering a completely free download of her YA vampire novel, Shadow Girl of Birch Grove.

Here's a brief description:

Jane Williams sees no way out of her miserable foster home when she receives an invitation to attend elite Birchwood Academy with a full scholarship. They'll give her tuition, spending money, clothes, and she gets to live in the old groundskeeper's cottage in the middle of a birch grove.

It sounds too good to be true. She expected snobbiness, but the students are almost too nice and welcoming. Her elegant and pale headmistress even offers Jane the chance to earn extra money by tutoring her gorgeous son, Lucky.

An unknown enemy begins threatening Jane, but she's not easily scared...even though she suspects that something happened to a former scholarship girl and that the headmistress and her staff are hiding some very dark secrets.

You can read it here for free.
