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 either—and the journey of self-
discovery that leads her to surprising truths. In her small Kansas town, at her predominantly white
school, Kanchana doesn’t 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 first—
her new friend is eager to please, embraces the family’s
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 Kan’s
growing discomfort compels her to investigate Shelly’s
past, she’s shocked to find how it much intersects with
her own—and just how far Shelly will go to belong…
