“It’s a slow-building, slow-burning mystery—Jarzab is as interested in probing Neily and Audrey’s emotional states and the ramifications of Carly’s murder as she is in solving it—but the author’s confident, literary prose makes for a tense and immersive thriller.”–Publishers Weekly“An intriguing puzzle from a welcome new voice in psychological suspense.”–Nancy Werlin, New York Times bestselling author of Impossible“Part mystery, part character study, the story hooks readers immediately, propelling them through a serpentine path of secrets and lies.”–Booklist“A sophisticated teen mystery.”–Kirkus Reviews“[A] rich psychological mystery . . . from a promising new author.”–School Library Journal
