the twists and turns."-Bustle.com

narrator Tessa—and readers—to doubt even those she loves the
most…An unsettling story of loss, lies, and violence lurking in the
shadows of a small town.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
★ "On the heels of Making a Murderer and The Jinx comes a
psychological thriller strongly rooted in the
true-crime tradition...Expertly plotted with plenty of twists
and turns—never mind a truly shocking conclusion—this gritty
thriller is sure to find a wide audience among teens and adults
alike. Equally concerned with a quest for the truth and the
powerful motivation of guilt, this compelling novel
won’t linger on the shelf." —Booklist starred
review
