Then along comes a corpse, a little girl who washes up in an ancient cemetery after a mudslide, and who has red hair just like Jeanie did. She’s got a great best friend, a hookup with an irresistibly crooked smile, and two months of beach days stretching out before her. She’s the lucky one who survived, and sure, the case is still cloaked in mystery-and it’s her small town’s ugly legacy-but Stella is focused on the coming summer. Now Stella is seventeen, and she’s over it. Jeanie was never seen or heard from again. Stella returned minutes later, with no memory of what happened. Twelve years ago Stella and Jeanie vanished while picking strawberries. Romance, friendship, and dark, bone-chilling fear fill the pages of this “genuine and truly eerie” ( RT Book Reviews) debut in the spirit of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
