Dark Song — Gail Giles

Dark has a sound. A song.

Marc said he heard that darkness when he creeped houses, when he stood over people while they slept. The song the predator's heart sings when it hears the heart of the prey.

Ames is not the person she was a few months ago. Her father lost his job, and her family is crumbling apart. No more private school, cushy mansion, or best friend to hang with . . . now, all she has is Marc.

Marc, who loves her more than anything. Marc, who is obsessed with his gun collection. Marc, who won't let anyone stand in his way where Ames is concerned--especially her parents. Mom and Dad, role models of lies and self-absorption, aren't exactly innocent . . . but is Ames prepared to commit the ultimate betrayal against them?

"It will be just us when it's done," he said. "No one will ever hurt you again."

In this novel about a good girl gone wrong, GAIL GILES, acclaimed author of Shattering Glass, What Happened to Cass McBride?, and Right Behind You, weaves a fast-paced, chilling, and emotional story that will leave readers breathless.
