'Propulsive storytelling at its best ... Highly recommended.' - Lou Berney
From a distance, Claudia Castro has it all: the famous family, the trust fund, thousands of Instagram followers, and a spot in NYU's freshman class. But then one drunken night everything changes.
Her memory hazy, Claudia cuts herself off from her family, seeking solace in a new friendship, but when the rest of school comes back from spring break, Claudia is missing.
'A searing tale of sexual assault in the digital age. Timely, taut, and gripping - an absolute must-read.' - Laura McHugh
