Young Adult Suspense | Thriller
From the author of The Darkest Lie comes a compelling, provocative story for fans of I Was Here and Vanishing Girls, about a high school senior straddling two worlds, unsure how she fits in eitherβand the journey of self- discovery that leads her to surprising truths. In her small Kansas town, at her predominantly white school, Kanchana doesnβt look like anyone else. But at home, her Thai grandmother chides her for being too westernized. Only through the clothing Kan designs in secret can she find a way to fuse both cultures into something distinctly her own. When her mother agrees to provide a home for a teenage girl named Shelly, Kan sees a chance to prove herself useful. Making Shelly feel comfortable is easy at firstβ her new friend is eager to please, embraces the familyβs Thai traditions, and clearly looks up to Kan. Perhaps too much. Shelly seems to want everything Kanchana has, even the blond, blue-eyed boy she has a crush on. As Kanβs growing discomfort compels her to investigate Shellyβs past, sheβs shocked to find how it much intersects with her ownβand just how far Shelly will go to belongβ¦
