Four angry exes. A masked stalker. A missing sister.

When summer begins, sixteen-year-old Rose Blackwood's life takes a chilling turn. Enigmatic notes appear, and a figure in a black hoodie and mask stalks her every move.

The one-year anniversary of her sister Lily's disappearance only intensifies Rose's torment. Rose holds a dark secret about that fateful night, a secret known to no one except her best friend Spencer—and her stalker.

As Rose races to unmask her tormentor, the line between friend and foe blurs. With the clock ticking, she must depend on Spencer, the one person she can trust.

In this pulse-pounding young adult thriller, secrets and lies collide, forcing Rose to confront her darkest fears. Can she uncover the truth behind her sister's disappearance and stop the relentless pursuit of her past? Or will she become the next victim in a deadly game of secrets and obsession?

Praise for this book

"Heydenburg is a talented writer and storyteller who knows how to keep her readers engaged from beginning to end. I loved the use of multiple POVs throughout the story with dueling timelines. It really added depth to the story and kept me on my toes as I tried to figure out who else was involved in the intricate revenge plot." - Jamie Lee Fry
