Mystery thriller meets family drama mixed with sci-fi. A perfect read. Haven’t liked a book of this type since I read Alice Feeney’s His and Hers. Twists and turns without being too predictable or repetitive. Loved the audiobook especially.

The book centers on a young girl who is in the juvenile detention system for killing a baby. She is in a group home situation where she is constantly assaulted. Seems very hopeless.
