For Josephine “Joss” Addler, summer should have meant freedom—senior year is over, and the sun is calling. But freedom dies the moment Lilah does. Raised to sweep ugly truths under the rug, Joss quickly realizes that nothing about this summer will be simple.
When the town zeroes in on its first suspect—an estranged but familiar neighbor of hers—Joss can’t stay on the sidelines. The closer she gets to the truth, the more the shadows close in… and the more she wonders if her own connection to the suspect will make her the next name on the killer’s list.
Trust is dangerous. Silence is deadly.
And Joss will have to decide if she’s brave enough to break free of the bystander effect… before it’s too late.
