Celadon Books 1/17/2023. New hardcover. in Brand New jacket. Store pick: Emerson Massachusetts is a fabulous place to live. It is a bastion of prestige and privilege where the American dream comes home to sleep at night. Nothing bad could ever happen here. Until it does. Eden Perry, a young woman who is house-sitting for a wealthy Emerson family has been found dead, clearly the result of foul play. It doesn't take long to determine three local teenagers had spent the evening with Eden, 'partying' the night away prior to her death. Jack is a cocky but mostly popular athlete from one of Emerson's most eminent families who carries some dark issues in his past. Hannah, Jack's current girlfriend is a sweet and loving girl, but also timid and emotional and willing to almost anything to please. Christopher has a crush on Eden. He is a shy and slight boy whose father is a chef who runs a successful restaurant in town. The local police are working the case which is getting a great deal of media exposure that is putting heavy pressure on them to solve it quickly. At the same time, the families of the three teenagers are working on their own, using all of the tools and resources at their disposal to defend and protect their kids. The web of interactions between these families are complex and sometimes shocking, as we learn in our journey through this exceptionally well written and compelling novel. This is an incredibly well crafted story that grabs the reader from the start and is guaranteed to make you lose some sleep...not just while you are reading it, but after you reach the end and are forced to ask yourself the question: 'Could this really happen?' -Brent B., store volunteer reader
