Chloe's older half sister Ruby is one of those people everyone is drawn to. She's stunningly beautiful, and fiercely loyal. One night she dares Chloe to swim all the way across the lake to show off at a party, and halfway across, Chloe makes a grim discovery--one of their classmates lying lifeless in a canoe. After the tragedy Chloe is sent to live with their dad, and misses Ruby terribly. One year later, Ruby, now college-aged, comes to get her and act as her guardian. But things are different in their little town. Strange. At their first party after Chloe's return, she sees something...someone...who takes her breath away. I won't ruin the rest of the story by telling you any more! This was my kind of book! Subtly creepy and super suspenseful! Ruby is one of the most complex, interesting characters I've met in a long time, and I was fascinated by what she could do. This book is reviewed for grades 9 and up, so you can find this book in the teen section at the public library or the bookstore.
