by Luanne Rice
From celebrated New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice comes a hotly anticipated YA thriller about two girls desperate to catch a murderer who's still on the loose.
It's been eight months since the body of Eloise Parrish was found in the woods.
Eloise's surviving sister, Oli, is numb with grief and shock. But Oli's also angry. Her sister's killer was never identified or caught. There are no leads, no clues. The case is growing cold, and only Oli seems to care.
Until Oli finds another girl left for dead, in the exact spot Eloise's body was found. Except this girl is alive. She can't remember how she got there, but Oli knows that she's the key to solving Eloise's murder.
The two girls join forces to unravel a mystery that is all too real -- and all too dangerous. As their search leads them around Oli's seemingly idyllic hometown and into the paths of people Oli knows well, Oli begins to wonder who she can trust... and how much she'll risk to learn the terrifying truth.
New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice delivers a tour-de-force thriller, full of breathtaking writing and heart-pounding suspense, about sisters, secrets, and the lengths we're willing to go to for those we love the most.
"The killer's unusual motive, ample information about the flora and fauna of southern New England, and a whisper of the supernatural all add interest to this story about the power of sisterhood. A fast-paced thriller with particular appeal for fans of nature and family stories." —Kirkus Reviews
"[P]redictable...The appearance of three ghostly figures dressed in white, a sick girl with a rare disease, and mysterious occult practices add texture; confidently wielded language and smooth plotting are a testament to Rice's expertise, making for a fast and enjoyable read." —Publishers Weekly
"A fast-paced tale of two loves--one true, one toxic--that will have readers racing to the final page. Luanne Rice always delivers!" —Tami Hoag, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"No one writes sisters like Luanne Rice, and in If Anything Happens to Me, she gives us an unforgettable heroine who will stop at nothing to avenge her sister's murder. These characters are vivid and real, the plot shocking and unflinching, as she reveals the truth of human nature and the raw courage of sisterhood." —Iris Johansen, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"If Anything Happens to Me is many things—a twisting mystery, a vivid portrayal of New England, a story about grief and loss—but at its heart, it's a book about the unique love between sisters, a bond that transcends death and lasts forever. As Oli searches for the truth about her beloved sister Eloise's disappearance, she is never alone—Eloise may be gone, but somehow she is still with Oli every step of the way as only a sister can be. The book's pulse-quickening mystery as well as its moving portrayal of a sister's love have stayed with me since the final page." —Alyssa Sheinmel, New York Times bestselling author of A Danger to Herself and The Castle School for Troubled Girls
