Marr's novel is often compared to Gossip Girl for its addictive thriller elements, receiving praise from Girlfriend Magazine. It's noted as a real page-turner that's absorbing and powerful, with a strong recommendation from Reading Time.

About the Author
Shirley Marr wishes she were many things. Like the front woman of a hot band rocking an audience in an ultra-short mini, but unfortunately she’s tone deaf with appalling emo poetry skills. It's a good thing then that writing is her biggest, maddest love. Shirley writes what she describes as tragedy-comedy-drama YA fiction with “Mad-Bad-Little-Miss-Lady-Macbeths”. She is the author of the YA novels Fury and Preloved. Shirley is an accountant by day and a writer by night. She also has a website: www.shirleymarr.net
