Coming out October 10, 2023
by Gary Braver
A 16-year-old exchange student accused of witchcraft— dark circumstances and sick rumors lead to her brutal death, a cover-up, and more murders two decades later.
“Suspenseful and fast paced, with unexpected and shocking twists, this dark story is filled with flawed, all-too-human characters, tense family relationships, and a haunting conclusion. Highly recommended!” — Booklist
“Braver skillfully alternates timelines in this unpredictable whodunit set in Cambridge, Mass. . . [He] interweaves a convincing police procedural and a character-driven high school drama, ringing both threads to a surprising and satisfying resolution.””
—Publishers Weekly
