Belonging, friendship, and a haunting after the crash

Kerry’s move to a new school turns into an intense pursuit of acceptance when three popular classmates bring her into their circle. The sudden car crash that kills them shifts the story from school cliques and social drama into ghost-story territory, as mysterious texts connect Kerry to the friends she has lost. The premise links the pressures of fitting in with the unsettling question of what remains after a life-changing loss.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in ghost stories set around school life.
  • Readers curious about stories involving popularity, cliques, and the desire to belong.
  • Those looking for a supernatural premise centered on friendship and loss.

Book overview

This haunting young adult ghost story explores the terrifying consequences of belonging to an ultra-exclusive clique.

"Adolescent egotism and back-stabbing cruelty. . ."--Kirkus Reviews

"A creepy tale middle school girls will die for. . . if they put down their cell phones long enough to read it."--The Horn Book

Being cool won't kill her, will it?

When Kerry starts tenth grade at a new school she's a loner at best, until the three coolest girls in school sweep her away in their glamorous and gossipy group. Kerry scrambles to keep up with the drama of her new friends and suddenly feels as if her life has finally begun. She would do anything to be included. When her three new friends are killed in a horrifying car crash, her life seems over as well. But then the texts begin. . . .
