Description

But she remembers nothing of that night. All she knows is that her father, a reverend at church, is missing, as is hannah, a young girl from the parish. Their disappearances have to be connected. Since that fateful night, callie's been plagued by graphomania-an unending and debilitating compulsion to write. The words that flow from callie's mind don't seem to make sense-until now. As the anniversary of hannah's vanishing approaches, more words and memories bubble to the surface. But digging up buried secrets might be callie's biggest mistake.

"Readers will feel unmoored until the last few pages of Oblivion, and that's all right; so does the story's narrator, Callie." --starred, Booklist

-- (5/1/2014 12:00:00 AM)

"The story works on two levels: as a psychological mystery and as a story of Callie's rocky relationships with her sister and boyfriends, always grounding her difficulties in reality.
Thoroughly compelling." --Kirkus Reviews

"This is a gripping, psychologically intense mystery." --VOYA
