Thrillers (Children's&YA)

When fire rages through their high school, it claims a classmate's life. The town is devastated. Five teens are fraught. The fire destroyed evidence, but it couldn't erase their secrets. A gripping new novel from the bestselling author of This Is Where It Ends.

She deserved more. They all did. A gripping and emotional new suspense novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of This is Where it Ends.

A terrible accident. A horrible loss. A regrettable tragedy. That's all anyone in Fenix can talk about when a fire consumes the local high school, taking the life of a student. The town mourns, except who really knew-let alone cared about-Eden when she was alive? And why was she in the building that night?

Five teens each hold a piece of the truth about what happened. They also have their own secrets, secrets they will fight to protect with the same fury as the blaze that killed Eden. But silence is meant to be broken, and this story can't be extinguished...
