This Is Not a Dead Girl Story

By: Sweeney, Kate

Book Overview

A dark and powerful mystery perfect for fans of Courtney Summers and true crime podcasts, in which a teen girl must do whatever it takes to find her missing cousin--who everyone else thinks is dead.

Remy Green is missing. Eight days after the death of her boyfriend, River O'Dell, the magnetic, golden-haired girl disappeared in the dead of night.

Jules Green, Remy's cousin, is her opposite in every way: awkward, shy, and a bit strange, never feeling at home in the small town of Black Falls, NY. The only place she has ever belonged is with River and Remy. Now she's on her own--and everyone around her believes that Remy is dead.

But Jules can still hear Remy's voice in her head, urging her to keep looking. With the help of River's cousin Sam, a troubled and mysterious boy, Jules starts untangling the truth of what exactly happened. Through her search, Jules must delve into the dark corners of her hometown--unearthing family secrets and hidden truths about the two people she thought she knew most.

Who was Remy, really, behind the popular-girl fa ade she wore? What trouble was she involved in? And can Jules find a way to save her from it? Or is this a dead girl story after all?
