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.
"[A]n excellent choice for a reader seeking a plot-driven mystery with complex characters." --Library Media Connection
-- (5/1/2014 12:00:00 AM)"An exciting page-turner." --School Library Journal
-- (5/1/2014 12:00:00 AM)"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
