Edith wonders where her cat is one day when she sits down to eat. But even her lab, Tricks, doesn’t seem to know. They go looking for the cat in the backyard without any success. They spot a large van parked along the street with its door open. Her dog catapults Edith forward into it. No sooner does she enter than the door slams shut behind her. The vehicle starts up the street.
As they take to the back roads and open fields and drive farther and farther north, only gradually does it dawn on Edith that she’s been kidnapped. It doesn’t make any sense to her that the girl in the cab is Eliza Fitzhugh, her next door neighbor from up the street. It makes even less sense that the driver looks just like some guy that she saw long ago last summer in a movie of her parents’ wedding from twenty-five years before.
Edith had better figure out what’s gone wrong. Or she is likely to wind up dead in this young adult horror novel by Linda Cargill. It is brought to you by Edward Ware Thrillers YA, an imprint of Cheops Books, LLC. If you like the novel, you might also like Nightmare and Pool Party also by Linda Cargill.
