Description
Formerly published as THE BUTTERFLY CLUES, Kate Ellison's debut novel combines psychological thriller, love story, and a girl's struggle with mental illness into an atmospheric page-turner that Booklist says will cause readers to be "swept up by both the terror-and the romance."When a local girl from a bad neighborhood-known only as Sapphire-is found shot to death, no one seems to care. She was just one of the many lost girls who live their lives invisibly, between the cracks. But sixteen-year-old Lo Marin changes all that when she stumbles upon a clue to Sapphire's murder-a gorgeous and unusual butterfly pin. Lo has always loved to collect beautiful things, and believes she can read the story behind the objects. This one isn't just speaking to her-it's screaming. As she becomes helplessly obsessed with the murder, Lo finds herself entangled in a violent underworld with a boy she can't trust. In this riveting page-turner, one lost girl will track down another in an explosive mystery that may be the end of them all.
