The police, Bee's friends, her fiance and even her mother accept the fact that Tess committed suicide.

So she embarks on a journey to discover the truth, no matter the cost...

Reviews


Lupton's crisp insights into grief and familial guilt are married to a confidently executed plot. Free from the genre's more mawkish excesses, Lupton's persuasive narrative voice is what keeps this classy debut on track. Emma Hagestadt
The Independent


Poignant and thrilling, this clever debut explores the fascinating bond between sisters, and haunts you with the power of their love. Chevy Stevens
New York Times


A fast-paced, absurdly entertaining novel...Along with a juicy mystery, it resounds with an authentic sense of sisterly love and loyalty.
The Boston Globe


Be prepared for page-turning.
Vanity Fair US


It's a remarkable piece of work.
The Seattle Times


It's a remarkable piece of work...Lupton shrewdly and compassionately peels back the story's rich layers.
