Mia is a young preteen whose Mom has become sick with Saratov illness.  Basically she has become a vampire.  Mia has to grow up quickly to help her mom survive without hunting/infecting others.  Interesting twist on the classic vampire story.  It becomes bogged down in the middle but the ending is good.  Recommend if you like this genre.
