Shrewd characterizations lend additional substance to this adrenaline-inducing read." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"Suggest this one to fans of Stefan Petrucha's Split (Walker, 2010) and Matt Whyman's Icecore (2007) and Goldstrike (2010, both S & S) for a good adrenaline rush with the tiniest hint of romance." --<i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>"April Henry has it down with her taut mysteries, and The Girl Who Was Supposed to Die is as good as her other works. Suspense and tension build from the first page--in which men are taking Cady out to kill her--to the last, as she uncovers the secrets in this eco-thriller." --<i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>"Older Jack and Jill readers will find themselves unable to put down this book until they reach the stunning conclusion." --<i>Jack and Mill Magazine</i> <p/>"Henry is a dependable best-selling force in both adult and YA worlds, and this book is tailor-made to please her fan base." --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"Henry (The Night She Disappeared) delivers another speedy, suspenseful mystery, this one reminiscent of Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne books." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"The reader must wait with baited breath to see when and if the characters will uncover the truth as the suspense builds to a fever pitch near the end of the book." --<i>VOYA on The Night She Disappeared</i> <p/>"Fans of intense page-turners . . . will love this one." --<i>School Library Journal on The Night She Disappeared</i> <p/>"It's a riveting story. . . .

Readers will race to the end." --<i>The Strand Magazine on Girl, Stolen</i> <p/>"The pace is impeccable, becoming rapidly more frantic as Cheyenne realizes her chances for success are dwindling.

Both are well-built, complex characters, trapped in their own ways by life's circumstances, which--paired with a relentlessly fast pace--ensures a tense read." --<i>Publishers Weekly on Girl, Stolen</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>April Henry</b> is the <i>New York Times</i>-bestselling author of many acclaimed mysteries for adults and young adults, including the YA novels <i>Girl, Stolen</i> and <i>The Night She Disappeared</i>, and the thriller <i>Face of Betrayal</i>, co-authored with Lis Wiehl.
