<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><b>Meredith Tate's gripping YA thriller about sisterhood and secrets--now in paperback!</b></b> <p/>When band-geek Ivy and her friends get together, things start with a rousing board game and end with arguments about Star Wars. <p/>Her older sister Autumn is a different story. Enigmatic, aloof, and tough as nails, Autumn hasn't had real friends--or trusted anyone--in years. Even Ivy. <p/>But Autumn might not be tough enough. After a drug deal gone wrong, Autumn is beaten, bound, and held hostage. Now, trapped between life and death, she leaves her body, seeking help. No one can sense her presence--except her sister. <p/>When Autumn doesn't come home, Ivy just knows she's in trouble. Unable to escape the chilling feeling that something isn't right, Ivy follows a string of clues that bring her closer to rescuing her sister... and closer to danger. <p/>Autumn needs Ivy to find her before time runs out. But soon, both sisters realize that finding her also means untangling the secrets that lead to the truth--about where they're hiding Autumn, and what Autumn has been hiding.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>This tale of undeterred sisterly love is a primal scream that will not be ignored. -<i>New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>A page-turner with real heart. -<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"This book touches on important social issues . . .
