| Summary, Etc. |
"A lavish, Texas-sized Sweet Sixteen turns deadly in this twisty, pulse-pounding new novel - serving up a fresh take on a classic locked-room whodunnit. Let the festivities begin... Today is Sophie Matthews's sixteenth birthday party, an exclusive black-tie bash in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, where secrets are as deep-rooted as the sprawling live oaks. Sophie's dad has spared no expense, and his renovated cliffside mansion-once thought haunted and shuttered for years from outsiders-is now hosting the event of the season. Then, just before the candles on the three-tiered red velvet cake are blown out, a body falls from the balcony onto the starlit dance floor below. It's a killer guest list . . . DANI: Sophie's new stepmother who's been plagued by self-doubt ever since the birth of her own baby girl ÓRLAITH: the superstitious Irish nanny who senses a looming danger in this cavernous house MIKAYLA: the birthday girl's best friend who is not nearly as meek as the popular kids assume KIM: the cunning ex-wife who has a grudge she can't let go of . . . Everyone is invited in. Not everyone will get out alive. "My favorite kind of thriller - fun, twisty, fast-paced, and populated by characters who feel so real you'll want to invite them (well, some of them) to your next party." - New York Times bestselling author Rachel Hawkins "I couldn't put it down!" - New York Times bestselling author Nina Simon "Explodes from page one." - Bestselling author Amanda Eyre Ward "This is the thriller of the summer." - Bestselling author Katie Gutierrez"-- Provided by publisher.
