Willa has no memory of anything before arriving at Dorsey House, and when she meets two sinister girls who seem to already know her, she slowly begins to lose her grip on what is real . . . and what is a lie. A haunting contemporary speculative thriller for fans of Kill Creatures and We Were Liars. Willa Childs doesnโt know why sheโs at Dorsey House. The tragic accident that banished her to the mysterious reformatory perched at the edge of the sea is lost in the recesses of her murky memory. The Dorseys themselves offer no answers, and the only other wards, Caroline and Ivy, seem intent on keeping Willa in the darkโand on the outside of their obsessive friendship. Yet as the days pass, it begins to feel like the sinister twosome know Willa better than she knows herself. And as her memories gradually return to focus, the girls become even stranger, doing their best to convince Willa that sheโs been at Dorsey House before. Only, thatโs impossible. Or is it? If theyโre telling the truth, Willa can no longer trust her own mind. The line between reality and nightmare begins to blur. Willa is certain Dorsey House is haunted, but by what? And if she canโt remember leaving, how will she ever escape?
