Synopsis

Those eyes. Wide. Ice blue. A swath of blond hair illuminated in headlights. Then, blackness.

Thump!

"We hit something."

Lennox Oliver is loving her new life in California. For the first time, she feels normal. She has friends, and a maybe boyfriend, and best of all no one knows the truth about her past and what happened to her mom.

But everything changes the night after a party when a drive on the supposedly haunted Hicks Road turns deadly and Lennox hits something . . . or someone.

Her friends say it was nothing, at worst, a deer in the road. But Lennox can't shake the vision of the girl in the headlights: bloody hair, wide, terrified eyes, lips parted in a scream. When she goes out to investigate, there's a slight dent in the car, but that's it: no body, no blood.

Lennox wants to go to the police—but how can she? She shouldn't have been driving, and as her friends remind her, there's no evidence that she actually hit anything. All Lennox wants to do is go back to her boring, normal life. But when a note saying FIND ME is slipped through her window, she fears that there was a girl she hit on Hicks Road that night . . . or she's slipping deeper into the illness that took her mother.

I won the Advanced Readers Copy as a giveaway from Goodreads. This had a really good premise but moved very slow throughout and really didn't pick up until the last 50 pages of the entire book. The ending seemed a little rushed but did a good job piecing together the events of the book. Even though......more

Thrilling from beginning to end! Talk about a modern day telling of Gaslight!
