Book Synopsis




The highly anticipated young adult thriller about a serial killer's daughter and her race to solve the crimes of her family's twisted past before it's too late--from E. Kennedy, aka New York Times bestselling romance author Elle Kennedy!

The world is hunting for answers--but what if the truth leads straight to you?

Ten years after her father--the infamous serial killer Gabriel Thorn--was caught, Ryan Shipley is back in Starling, Tennessee, trying to lay low. No one can know who she really is. No one can know the truth about her past.

But as fresh eyes dig deeper into the case, old secrets refuse to stay buried. Cryptic texts, eerie coincidences, and a chilling note leave everyone wondering--does Ryan know more than she's letting on? As the truth unravels, one thing becomes clear: in a town full of secrets, Ryan might be the biggest mystery of them all.

Perfect for fans of Holly Jackson and Jeneva Rose--get ready for a thriller packed with twists you won't see coming.



Review Quotes




★ "Suspenseful writing and nuanced, morally complex characterization anchors both introspective examinations of the ripple effects of violence and a grimly layered mystery about identity and reconciliation." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

"A largely satisfying mystery that's appealingly creepy and dark." --Kirkus Reviews
