Books to Watch!
by Marieke Nijkamp
She deserved more. They all did. A gripping and emotional new suspense novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of This is Where it Ends.
A terrible accident. A horrible loss. A regrettable tragedy. That's all anyone in Fenix can talk about when a fire consumes the local high school, taking the life of a student. The town mourns, except who really knew―let alone cared about―Eden when she was alive? And why was she in the building that night?
Five teens each hold a piece of the truth about what happened. They also have their own secrets, secrets they will fight to protect with the same fury as the blaze that killed Eden. But silence is meant to be broken, and this story can't be extinguished…
"Topics relating to physical and sexual abuse, bullying, and the ways powerful people leverage their influence combine in this dark, gritty story about coming together and empowering one another." ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A topical assessment of the ways power and prestige can enable and cover up violence." ―Kirkus Reviews
"Nijkamp lives up to their well-earned reputation... A chilling mystery for readers looking for gritty depth." ―Booklist
