Description

From New York Times bestselling author Kimberley McCreight comes the first book in a breathtakingly brilliant new trilogy, packed with tension, romance and thrilling twists and turns.

Theyll get inside your head
Imagine if you could see inside the minds of everyone around you your best friend, your boyfriend, your enemies

Imagine how valuable youd be

Imagine how much danger youd be in

Imagine being an Outlier.

It all starts with a text:
Please Wylie, I need your help.

Wylie hasn't heard from her one time best friend, Cassie, in over a week. Not since their last fight. But that doesn't matter. Cassie's in trouble, and its up to Wylie to do what she does best, save her best friend from herself.

This time it's different though Cassie's texts are increasingly cryptic and scary. And instead of having Wylie come by herself, Jasper shows up saying Cassie asked him to help. Trusting the super-hot boy who sent Cassie off the rails doesn't feel right, but Wylie has no choice.

But as Wylie and Jasper follow Cassies bizarre trail, Wylie has a growing sense that something is REALLY wrong. What isnt Cassie telling them Who is she with and what do they want from her And could finding her be just the beginning
