Edgar Award–Winning Author: “Jess is feisty, fierce and incapable of backing down—even when her pursuit of the truth might get her killed.” —April Henry, New York Times–bestselling author of Girl, Stolen
It’s Christmastime in Port Sentinel, the tiny English town where Jess Tennant has been living for more than a year now. Jess wasn’t sure how she felt about moving to Port Sentinel when her mom dragged her there right in the middle of high school, but even Jess has to admit the town has completely outdone itself for the holidays. There’s a Christmas market complete with a mini ice-rink and fairy lights, and the bare trees stand stark against the sky.
But for Gilly Poynter, one of Jess’s classmates, the Christmas season is anything but merry. She’s disappeared, leaving behind only her diary and a lot of questions. Has she run away from her unhappy home, or has something more sinister happened? And will Jess be able to find her before it��s too late?
“The relatable protagonist, the quaint setting, and the well-done mystery will entice fans of whodunits.�� —School Library Journal
Praise for the Jess Tennant Mysteries
