Description

The master of suspense
Freida McFadden, New York Times-bestselling author of The Housemaid

One of the finest suspense writers of her generation
S. A. Cosby, New York Times-bestselling author of All the Sinners Bleed

Some lies can save you. Some lies can break you...

Twenty-five years ago in a small beachside town, a charming drifter met three inseparable teenage girls, Barb, Lorelai and Nicolette, at Wonderland, the local amusement park. Days later, Lorelai was found dead, her body surfacing in a flooded bog near where she was murdered.

Now, Wonderland—the infamous site of murders by the serial killer dubbed The Carnival Killer—is about to reopen, revitalizing the dying town. With their past safely behind them, Barb and Nicolette have moved on with their lives. But when the Carnival Killer recants his confession about killing a high school girl, and a new body of a young woman washes ashore, the truth about what happened to Lorelei all those years ago—and what is happening now—threatens the very fabric of the town itself.

Readers love Jennifer Hillier...

CAPTIVATING! Right from the very beginning I was hooked

5 billion stars! I loved it so much
