A violent carjacking sends shock waves through sleepy Havenkill, N.Y., in this moving character-driven standalone from Edgar-finalist Gaylin (What Remains of Me). The incident leaves high school football star Liam Miller, who was run over while apparently trying to stop the thief, fighting for his life. Police officer Pearl Maze takes the initial report from badly shaken former pop star Amy Nathanson, a resident of nearby Woodstock, for whom the stolen vintage Jag is the only vestige of her ’80s glory days as a one-hit wonder. Some of the details in Amy’s account, such as having her window rolled down at a stop sign on a freezing cold night, strike Pearl as unlikely. As for the culprit, suspicion falls on high school pariah Wade Reed, who’s rumored to be a Satanist, after finger-pointing from Liam’s friends on social media. What really happened that night will take Pearl’s considerable detective prowess—and courage—to figure out. Though the fast-paced plot takes a few implausible final twists, the novel’s lasting impact comes from its indelible portrait of people in crisis. Agent: Deborah Schneider, Gelfman Schneider Literary Agents.

For this tightly plotted drama of rumors and small-town gossip that can kill, Cassandra Campbell's beautiful cello voice is the perfect instrument. Jackie Reed is the divorced mother of one very squirrelly teenage boy named Wade, whose inner life has become opaque to her, and to Wade's likable little brother, Connor. When a popular classmate is killed during a bizarre carjacking, the social media gossip mill blames Wade, who makes it easy for them. Belief in Gaylin's complicated female characters--Jackie; Pearl, the police investigator; carjack victim Aimee En, a self-aggrandizing has-been rock starlet, among others--is crucial to the success of this high-tension plot. Campbell nails all of them, and the listener to the edge of her seat. B.G. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
