A paranormal suspense novel about a boy who can reach inside people and steal their innermost things - fears, memories, scars, even love - and his family's secret ritual that for centuries has kept the cliff above their small town from collapsing.
Aspen Quick has never really worried about how he's affecting people when he steals from them. But this summer he'll discover just how strong the Quick family magic is - and how far they'll go to keep their secrets safe.
With a smart, arrogant protagonist, a sinister family tradition, and an ending you won't see coming, this is a fast-paced, twisty story about power, addiction, and deciding what kind of person you want to be, in a family that has the ability to control everything you are.
"Starred Review. Fast-paced and unpredictable, the plot seamlessly balances a summer romance with well-crafted paranormal suspense. A fresh and substantive story about family, love, and deciding who you want to be in the world." - Kirkus
"Breathtaking storytelling. This is a fast-paced paranormal mystery with an unusual magic system. It is not the same old make-believe and should be very welcome in most libraries." - School Library Journal
"[An] unnerving tale of supernatural suspense... [Ribar] sets up an intriguing premise and explores Aspen's abilities in provocative ways." - Publishers Weekly
"A novel that balances fantasy with realism....Quick and entertaining; the characters (some of whom learn their lessons) are can't-look-away wicked in an all-too-human way." - Horn Book
"The mind games are acrobatic in their twists and turns." - BCCB
"Pitch perfect from the title to the end, I couldn't put Rocks Fall Everyone Dies down! The characters shine in this brilliant page-turner with a supernatural twist." - Beth Revis, author of the Across the Universe trilogy
