Winner - Best Novel, ITW Thriller Award Authors on the Air Network - Thriller of the Year Finalist - Anthony Award for Best Novel Finalist - Macavity Award for Best Novel *

An explosive, edge-of-your-seat read about three friends, one murder, and a whole world of secrets...

Angela was one of the most popular girls in her high school before she disappeared without a trace. Nobody ever knew what became of herβ€”neither Georgina, her best friend, nor Kaiser, who was close with both girls. Then, fourteen years later, Angela's remains were discovered in the woods near Geo's childhood home, and Kaiserβ€”who became a detective with the Seattle police departmentβ€”finally learned the truth: Angela was a victim of Calvin James.

To the authorities, Calvin was a notorious serial killer. But back in the day, Calvin was Geo's first love. Their relationship bordered on obsession from the moment they met, right up until the night Angela was killed. Geo carried the secret of Calvin's dark deeds until the evidence landed her in prison. But now, just as Geo is about to be released, new bodies start turning upβ€”killed in the exact same manner as Angela... and soon Geo, Kaiser, and local law enforcement officials realize that what happened that fateful night is more complex and chilling than anyone could have imagined.

β€œThrilling... terrifying, Jar of Hearts is definitely not something you've read before.” β€” Cleveland Plain Dealer
