Hazel wanted what every outsider wants, to be noticed, to be wanted, to belong. So when the girls who ruled the school finally welcomed her in, she followed them into the night without hesitation. But only she came back.

The others are gone, and Hazel won’t or can’t say what happened. Her parents are desperate to protect her, just like they always have. But the more they try to bury the truth, the harder it claws its way to the surface.

Something terrible happened that night. Something Hazel brought home with her. And someone will do anything to keep it hidden.

Erica Damon’s thriller pulls you into the shadows of teenage longing and buried secrets. It’s a fast, eerie read with a twist that lingers long after the final page. Don’t trust anyone and don’t assume you know who’s to blame.
