Puppet People - Paperback

Seventeen-year-old Kindle Kerr has been in deep mourning ever since a car crash took her family. To keep them close, she continues the family tradition of puppetry. That is until she's abducted by aliens and turned into a puppet herself--with strings made from her own skin. Now Kindle spends her time mining a mysterious golden substance whenever her strings are pulled by the Puppeteer--her puppet-obsessed alien overlord.

But Kindle has an advantage. While the other puppets fall into a nightly coma, she doesn't. Instead, she develops a plan to meet with her captor because it's time Kindle pulled the strings in her life for once.
