Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen have knocked this one out of the park!! A shocking, twisty-turny thrill ride of a novel, You Are Not Alone begins dramatically with Shay Miller witnessing an apparent suicide by subway. Simply witnessing this traumatic event throws Shay’s life into a tailspin. Prior to this, Shay was fairly complacent: she was secretly crushing on her roommate/best friend and working a temp job. Afterwards, Shay tries to recenter herself by going to a memorial for the suicide victim. She winds up befriending some of the same girls that were friends with the deceased: The Moore sisters. These gals become Shay’s nearly instant best friends, and support her through thick and thin by helping her find a place to live, find a job, and delve into online dating. However, it quickly becomes apparent to the reader that the Moore sisters aren’t quite as sparkly as they seem. What exactly are they up to, and when will Shay put all the pieces together? As in previous novels by this duo, the story isn’t told in chronological order. The timeline jumps all over this place, which adds to the intrigue and tension as events are revealed out of order. Throughout, the reader knows a bit more than Shay, and this keeps the pages flying! I couldn’t put this book down!!
Thanks to St. Martin’s press for the early copy!! You Are Not Alone will be available on March 3rd, and you can pre-order now on Amazon!
