"In this debut that's perfect for fans of Tana French and Gillian Flynn, a true crime writer risks becoming the next chapter of a crumbling orphanage's dark legacy as she unravels the mystery of two deaths, decades apart"-- - Simon and Schuster
Sharp Objects meets The Appeal in this âatmospheric and chillingâ (Flynn Berry, New York Times bestselling author) novelâbased on a shocking true storyâabout a crime writer who risks everything as she investigates a decades-old mystery at a crumbling orphanage.
On a blistering summer day in 1968, nine-year-old Tommy vanishes without a trace from Coram House, an orphanage on the shores of Lake Champlain. Fifty years later, the opportunity to investigate his disappearance and the orphanageâs eerie lore is just the break that struggling true crime writer Alex Kelley needs.
Arriving in Vermont for research, Alex grows obsessed with Tommyâs disappearance, until her investigation takes a chilling turn with the discovery of a womanâs body in the lake. Alex is convinced this new death is somehow connected to Coram Houseâs dark past, even if Officer Russell Parker thinks sheâs just desperate for a story. As the body count rises, Alex must prove that the key to finding the killer lies in a decades-old murderâor else she risks becoming the next victim herself in this spine-tingling debut that âis not to be missedâ (Tessa Wegert, author of The Coldest Case).
